Flock Safety Mandates Audit Logging After License Plate Reader Misuse

Flock Safety on August 13, 2026, required new customers to adopt audit monitoring, case-code search requirements, and shorter data retention. CEO Garrett Langley said Flock "got this one wrong" in not mandating audits sooner. The guardrails follow at least 14 documented cases of officers using license plate readers to stalk romantic interests.
