@deflock-redmond.bsky.socialHow often does #Flock get it wrong and what happens when police trust bad data?

We identified drivers who'd been stopped, injured, or jailed after Flock leads went wrong."
@deflock-redmond.bsky.socialLike outtakes from a dystopian farce...
"Despite the fact that the officer could have verified all three of these things using the handy-dandy laptop that fired off the #Flock alert, the officer apparently refused to do so and took Flock’s word for it instead."

"Heneghan made over 6,190 searches between Dec. 2024 and March 2026, only 40 of which occurred while he was on duty."
▪️ 1100+ of his wife's car
▪️ 1100+ for a man who knew his wife

@vpnet.bsky.socialA Flock technician called 911 on a journalist for filming him on a public road. Three police cars pulled the reporter over. Flock's cameras run on the idea that nobody has privacy in public. Thread below.
