Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is urging lawmakers to quickly enact reforms regarding the use of Flock Safety cameras by law enforcement. He argues the technology, which utilizes automatic license plate readers, is becoming “out of control.” DeSantis expressed concern over the potential for mass, inappropriate tracking of citizens and the erosion of privacy rights. The Governor is seeking legislation to place limits on how the cameras are deployed and how the data collected is used. He warned against the creation of a surveillance state through unchecked technological advancements. The proposed reforms aim to balance public safety with the constitutional rights of individuals, ensuring responsible and targeted usage of this technology. DeSantis believes urgent action is needed to address these growing privacy concerns.
