• Caught on camera: The debate over Flock Safety hits the streets of Pierce County (thenewstribune.com) — Eatonville has already removed all of its Flock license-plate cameras after a city council vote, even as nearby Pierce County communities continue debating the technology's benefits and privacy risks.
