📰 News we're reading
• There is little state regulation of Flock cameras in Iowa. That could soon change. (iowapublicradio.org) — Hazelwood residents should know that their own police department already self-audits its use of Flock license plate reader data monthly, as Missouri leaders move toward tighter statewide rules on this surveillance technology. The story explains how Flock cameras are used across Missouri and neighboring states, growing bipartisan concerns about privacy, and the push for new laws that could change how Hazelwood and other local departments operate these systems.
