FlockHopper protects your drive. Ending the contracts protects everyone.

Council votes end contracts. More than 150 communities have canceled, rejected, or switched off plate readers since 2021, more than 100 of them this year, according to DeFlock. If you want to do more than route around the cameras:

  • Take it to your city council.

    DeFlock’s guides cover what to say, organizing, and public records requests.
