• San Jose officer used Flock cameras to help relative track domestic violence victim, chief says (fresnobee.com) — Cupertino has joined Saratoga and Los Altos Hills in voting to stop using Flock license-plate-reader cameras as their primary system, amid growing concerns about police misuse of the technology.
