🧠 Key Questions We Ask
By the end of this episode, you’ll be able to ask your town – in public and in writing:
How long do you retain Flock data – 30 days, 90 days, or longer?
Exactly which agencies (including out‑of‑state or federal) can search or view our data?
Have any private networks (schools, HOAs, religious sites, JCCs) been shared with outside agencies?
Can Flock employees view live or recorded feeds from our cameras? Under what policy?
Can you produce a complete audit of who has used Flock, when, and for what purpose?
If your town can’t answer those questions, that’s the story.
