The City of Newburgh Police Department has deployed FLOCK AI-powered ALPRs and are tracking your every movement throughout the city.

Automated license plate readers (ALPRs) are high-speed, computer-controlled camera systems that are typically mounted on street poles, streetlights, highway overpasses, mobile trailers, or attached to police squad cars. ALPRs automatically capture all license plate numbers that come into view, along with the location, date, and time. The data, which includes photographs of the vehicle, bumper stickers, and sometimes its driver and passengers, is then uploaded to a central server as searchable data. FLOCK is the largest vendor of these products.

ALPR technology can be used to target drivers who visit sensitive places such as health centers, immigration clinics, gun shops, union halls, protests, or centers of religious worship.

Join your neighbors and guest speakers for a discussion on Flock, ALPRs, civil liberties, and how Newburgh can join the growing number of cities that are saying FLOCK NO to mass surveillance.
