Federal judge calls Flock what it is: 'indiscriminate mass surveillance.' Deputy ran a California plate for no reason, found 91 pounds of meth. Judge threw it out â fruit of the poisonous tree. Right call, wrong target. The cancer isn't warrantless searches. It's that the database exists. Flock built a searchable index of every plate in America and sold access to the state. Fourth Amendment doesn't ban surveillance â it regulates it. That's not a shield. It's a licensing scheme. Full stop.
