> The webinar also shows that Flock’s latest public stance — that its ALPR cameras are noninvasive technology, that they take only static images at a single place and time, and that they are primarily used to solve the worst crimes — is wildly misleading. I bet they capture video and audio that Flock retains privately, but then send the local agency still images unless they pay a premium.

The attached webinar is worth a watch. They are very deep into profiling and estimating crime. That's not a good idea in my opinion.
