⚠️ Surveillance isn't inevitable ⚠️

Over 100 communities - including Austin, Denver, Cambridge, and Eugene have already canceled or suspended their Flock contracts.

🏡 Communities are fighting back against mass surveillance, and it's working. Automated license plate readers don't lower crime, they just invade public privacy and create a dystopian mass location database.

✅ Removal is the only solution, vendor swapping just perpetuates the same surveillance system.
