Field notes
The described review process distinguishes a real surveillance proposal from a keyword match: a volunteer reads the agenda item before any alert goes out. The homepage reports coverage across 50 states, 2,854 municipalities monitored, and 143,316 cameras mapped, but lists only one confirmed hearing tracked; it also says volunteers continue adding municipalities.
