📰 News we're reading

• Local communities contemplate future Flock usage (gmtoday.com) — Menomonee Falls police plan to keep using automated license plate reader cameras, even as nearby cities like Waukesha and Oconomowoc move to end their Flock contracts. Local departments are weighing privacy and Fourth Amendment concerns, and Menomonee Falls is named among defendants in a lawsuit seeking warrants for database searches, so residents may see both continued camera use and ongoing legal debate.
