DeFlock Tampa Puts Local License-Plate Surveillance Under a Public Microscope

deflocktampa.org Observed source
Editorial interest 88/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A Hillsborough-area civic campaign explains Flock Safety's license-plate network and tracks local records, meetings, agencies, and accountability questions.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-24 issue.

Field notes

The campaign separates national product behavior from local accountability work: it describes each drive-by as a distinct vehicle record and directs readers toward agency settings, retention schedules, hotlists, and public-records requests. Its local pages cover Plant City, Tampa, St. Petersburg, and Pasco, while the August 2026 calendar lists specific commission, board, referral, and public-comment events. The site also links its claims to Florida statutes, records guidance, press coverage, and civil-liberties organizations.
