Nothing To See Here, Except 143 Entries on Policing Technology
A sourced investigative timeline tracks license-plate readers, body cams, drones, and other AI policing tools through lawsuits, contract failures, privacy disputes, and public costs.
Field notes
The project organizes 143 dated entries into filters spanning themes, technologies, and vendors, then links each item to its cited source. Its taxonomy includes concrete failure modes such as wrongful stops, false hits, data sharing, contract cancellations, and security flaws. License-plate readers account for 74 entries and Flock Safety for 60. A separate public-cost counter attributes $10.1 million to 32 entries, using the site's stated counting method.
