Concerns over Flock cameras are growing in Roseville, where members of DeFlock Roseville gathered outside City Hall Saturday to protest the use of automated license plate readers.
The group wants the Roseville Police Department to end its contract with Flock Safety, which provides the cameras, and remove all automated license plate readers from the city.
Rosanna Harmon joined other DeFlock Roseville members outside City Hall to oppose the police department's use of Flock cameras. The group passed out flyers and informed people about the automated license plate readers, which capture license plates and track vehicles. DeFlock Roseville believes the high-speed cameras violate privacy.
Roseville police continue to defend the cameras.
Amid the growing outcry, the department added a new section to its website this week with information about how the cameras are used, how they help solve crimes, how data is stored and which other California agencies the data is shared with.
The site describes the technology as "important investigative tools that help protect community safety while maintaining strict privacy protections."
Roseville police have been using Flock cameras for five years.
DeFlock Roseville members said they will continue attending City Council meetings to speak out against the cameras and plan to hold more events in the future.
