- Flock CEO Garrett Langley publicly acknowledged the startup "got this one wrong" following reports that some police officers misused tracking data the company collects.
- Flock said it is rolling out policy changes and assuming greater responsibility for how law enforcement agencies use its technology.
Why it matters: Flock's surveillance cameras and license-plate readers are widely deployed by police departments, so a company-level policy shift — and a public admission of error — could reshape how departments access and use the data, even if specific restrictions were not detailed in this announcement.
