Description
Police around the country are sounding the alarm. While police departments aggressively expand AI-powered surveillance tools like Flock license-plate readers, officers express growing concern over being secretly recorded by the public. Status Coup’s JT Cestkowski breaks down this clear double standard, examines footage from inside an overcrowded South Carolina correctional facility, and details documented instances of police misusing surveillance technology to track citizens.
