- LAPD ended its contract with Flock, and CEO Garrett Langley claimed the technology only takes static pictures of cars and reads license plates, suggesting people misunderstand it.
- Despite Langley's claim, Flock had been marketing a live video upgrade for all its ALPRs for the past year, as shown in blog posts and sales pitches.
- A now-deleted blog post stated that all existing Flock LPRs would stream live video via a free software update by end of 2025, with no new hardware or cost.
- Text messages obtained via public records request revealed that Dunwoody, Georgia police enabled live video streaming on Flock cameras, and a Flock employee confirmed the feature was active.
- Flock later stated that only five law enforcement agencies participated in a limited pilot for live video, and the feature was discontinued in March for all agencies, with no recording or playback capabilities.
