DESCRIPTION:Free masks as there are 4 flock cameras at this very location! (or bring 
 your own).\n\nNearby  Mountain View's  City Council terminated their Flock 
 Safety license plate camera contract in a unanimous vote in February after 
 a data sharing breach was discovered. We demand the same for all of the San 
 Francisco Peninsula! \n\nThe city of Palo Alto has a review of their 
 contract with Flock coming right up and Menlo Park will be looking at the 
 same very soon. \n\nThe only people who seem to be excited about 
 surveillance tech are cops, authoritarians and VCs. So why do city councils 
 keep writing checks to Flock Safety to install privacy destroying cameras 
 on our streets? We don't know the specific answer to that (well, we have a 
 few ideas to be honest), but we do think it's worthwhile to remind city 
 government, particularly in these troubled times, that these are our cities 
 and our streets. So don't you think we should have a say in something as 
 basic as whether to hand over our sensitive data to a company as 
 untrustworthy as Flock?\n\nWe think so.\n\nJoin The Wolves and The Raging 
 Grannies in a joyful Flock off outside the Town & Country Village shopping 
 area in Palo Alto. Bring your signs and banners and let cities everywhere 
 know that we won't rest until the cameras have been turned off, the 
 contracts terminated and surveillance tech relegated to the dustbin of 
 historically bad ideas.\n\nAs always, this event is peaceful and 
 non-violent. We're gonna bring the noise. Everything else we're gonna leave 
 alone.\n\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2026/05/11/18886180.php
