Flock/ALPR cameras are active in Vermillion County, recording every vehicle that passes. While the cameras are Vermillion County Sheriff's Department owned, all data is transmitted to Flock Safety — a private company — then stored on Amazon Web Services, one of the largest data collection and technology corporations in the world. Your license plate, location, and travel patterns are held not by your local government, but by two separate private corporations operating under their own terms. ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ W H A T T H I S M E A N S F O R Y O U YOUR MOVEMENTS ARE BEING RECORDED Every vehicle passing a camera is captured and stored. The AI does not know or care why you travel. It only records that you do, how often, and where — building a permanent profile of your movement patterns. TWO PRIVATE CORPORATIONS HOLD YOUR DATA Your plate data goes to Flock Safety, then to Amazon Web Services. If Flock is ever acquired or sold, it appears their contract allows that data to transfer to the new owner — just like 23andMe's genetic data transferred to a bankruptcy buyer in 2025, over the objections of 24 states. No resident ever consented to any of this. Y O U R C O N S T I T U T I O N A L R I G H T S A R E A T S T A K E NO SURVEILLANCE WITHOUT REPRESENTATION PERSONAL SOVEREIGNTY Consent comes from the governed — not the other way around. You never consented to this system. RIGHT TO TRAVEL You have a fundamental right to travel freely without owing the government an explanation for where you go. 1ST AMENDMENT Freedom of assembly and association. This system can reconstruct who attended a political meeting, church, gun show, or community gathering — and when. 4TH AMENDMENT Carpenter v. United States (2018): The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that comprehensive location tracking over time requires a warrant. ALPR systems raise the same legal concerns. 2ND AMENDMENT Visits to a gun store, shooting range, or gun show are fully protected constitutional activities. ALPR AI systems you pass permanently record, and potentially flag, your travel pattern to these locations and events — without any crime, warrant, or legal basis.

Despite that, ~7,100 unauthorized data pulls occurred through a default system setting the city didn't know was active. The city tried to turn it off — the system re- enabled itself automatically. The program was indefinitely suspended. In Austin, Texas, a community audit found data was being kept longer than the city council approved and that one in five searches had no documented reason. The community pushed back and the contract was cancelled.

W H A T H A S B E E N D O N E A formal written request has been submitted to Vermillion County Commissioners, County Council members, and the Sheriff's Department asking for: a pause on new camera installations, an independent legal review of all vendor contracts, adoption of a county ALPR policy ordinance governing law enforcement use, a separate ordinance governing private business use including mandatory public disclosure signage, and a joint public session where residents can hear all sides and weigh in.

FLOCK SAFETY TERMS OF SERVICE — WHAT CHANGED IN FEBRUARY 2026 A plain-language summary of significant changes to Flock Safety’s contract terms and what they mean for Vermillion County residents Between July 2025 and February 2026, Flock Safety made at least four significant changes to its standard Terms and Conditions. These changes were documented by the ACLU, HaveIBeenFlocked.com, and the security research service IPVM. They were not broadly announced to existing customers or to the public. The changes consistently shift power away from local governments and toward Flock Safety as the vendor. Each one has direct implications for what Vermillion County residents can expect regarding their data. The Four Key Changes What Changed What It Said Before What It Says Now Why It Matters Data Ownership — Sale of Data "Flock does not own and shall not sell Customer Data." This language was explicit and unambiguous. That entire sentence has been removed. There is no longer any written commitment that Flock will not sell your data. If Flock is acquired, goes bankrupt, or decides to monetize its database, there is now nothing in the contract preventing your plate data from being sold to a third party. Data Control — Who Really Controls Access Customers (local governments) were understood to control their own data. Flock now retains "the exclusive right to determine and control the method, timing, format, and medium" of access to data — even data the customer technically "owns." The county may own the data on paper but Flock decides how, when, and in what form the county can access it. The county also gets degraded, low-resolution copies without full metadata like timestamps. Perpetual Use After Contract Ends When a contract ended, the vendor relationship ended. Flock now has a "perpetual" right to use customer data to "support and improve" its services — even after the county terminates the contract. Cancelling the contract does not stop Flock from using Vermillion County residents’ movement data. That data stays in Flock’s possession and can be used by them indefinitely. Corporate Transaction — Data Transfer No explicit language about what happens to data in a sale, merger, or acquisition. Contract now explicitly permits data to transfer to a new owner in any corporate transaction — merger, acquisition, reorganization, or asset sale. If Flock is ever sold, the new owner inherits all county data automatically. No resident consent is required. No opt- out exists. This is the same mechanism that transferred 23andMe’s genetic data in bankruptcy. What This Means in Plain Terms • The protection most people assume exists — that a government vendor cannot sell public data — has been quietly removed from Flock’s contract. • Even if Vermillion County cancels its contract with Flock tomorrow, Flock retains the right to keep using county residents’ movement data indefinitely under the perpetual use clause. • The county has legal “ownership” of the data but Flock controls access to it — and reportedly provides only degraded copies without full metadata. • A future acquisition of Flock — a venture-backed company for which an eventual sale is a normal expected outcome — would automatically transfer all county data to whoever buys them, with no notice required and no recourse available to residents.
