Summary
An Idaho man is threatening to sue several cities over their use of Flock Safety cameras, arguing that the AI-driven automated license plate reader (ALPR) technology and data sharing practices violate Idaho state law. The Caldwell Police Department uses multiple AI technologies including automated report writing, body camera footage analysis, license plate reading, and drone first responders. The plaintiff, a Wilder resident, claims the Flock Safety contract unlawfully allows AI-driven ALPR data sharing and is seeking damages and contract changes.
