Two U.S. senators, Raphael Warnock (D-Ga.) and Katie Britt (R-Ala.), are raising concerns about the misuse of automated license plate readers (ALPRs), often called "Flock cameras," by police. They have written to Attorney General Todd Blanche requesting information on the Department of Justice's funding and oversight of these systems to prevent abuse. The senators highlight numerous instances of officers improperly using ALPR technology for personal reasons.
