What is Flock Nova, the service SDPD quietly adopted last December according to Axios? 404 media reports that Flock Nova is a "massive people look up tool" that uses open source intelligence and agency data to find links between people. www.404media.co/license-plat... #sandiego

Last Dec, SDPD quietly signed a contract for Flock Nova without going through the Privacy Advisory Board or public oversight process. Nova, like Palantir, links and integrates in house and "open source intelligence." www.axios.com/local/san-di... #alpr #flock #surveillance

The PAB was created to protect our privacy. But police have been heavily lobbying them to take a weak, passive approach to Flock license plate readers and other concerning surveillance tech. 💛 Make it personal 🔨 Tell how surveillance affects you 🛑 Demand accountability

Former ICE and CBP leaders who have now left the agency told the FT that previous safeguards are gone, with ICE pursuing aggressive quotas by using data from Social Security, the IRS, and commercial surveillance and license plate reader companies. ig.ft.com/us-ice-surve...

We are inspired, furious, and we will not stop. Read our statement on yesterday's San Diego City Council vote on ALPR.

We are inspired, furious,
and we will not stop.

We showed up in record numbers. 180 in person, more online. Hundreds wrote in too. The overwhelming majority opposed approving SD's ALPR program. Our coalition stood stronger than ever with more than 70 community and labor organizations standing side by side.

Even still, we are furious that the City Council majority voted to approve the ALPR use policy and 53 other surveillance technologies, continuing the use of Flock.

We thank CMs Elo-Rivera, Foster, and Moreno for opposing. We saw them dig into the police department's and Flock's policies and practices, validating community concerns and clarifying problems Flock kept dismissing as "hypotheticals."

All the calls and conversations before the vote made a difference. We saw some Councilmembers take this more seriously than they had before, with CM Lee saying he wants to have a call for vendors this year.

Let's take a breath, reflect, and plan for the fight ahead.

Meet Lucky Aden, youth organizer at PANA San Diego, part of ‪@sandiegotrust.bsky.social‬. 👋🏼 She calls on City Council to take the millions invested in surveillance and reinvest it into libraries, public restrooms, and youth. Where should we invest $2 million SD pays for Flock? 🤔
