FlockOff Project — Watch the Watchers
A public research platform tracking automated license plate reader locations, agencies, contracts, policies, and documented sharing relationships.
- For
- Researchers, reporters, and people investigating local surveillance
- Worth noticing
- The homepage separates official records, sourced research, community reports, and unverified information.
Field notes
The project structures surveillance research around a controlled public camera dataset, agency profiles, and a relationship graph. Its evidence model distinguishes official records from sourced analysis, community reports, and unverified claims, while retaining source attribution and checking context. The homepage reports 142,162 camera locations and 470,692 relationships, but explicitly cautions that source-provided verification does not constitute independent verification by FlockOff.
