The Government is Monitoring Anti
Fusion center bulletins reveal US law enforcement monitoring anti-Flock social media accounts and warning police ahead of the DeFlock Week of Action against license plate readers.
Public records requests by 404 Media and journalist Dan Boguslaw exposed intelligence bulletins from fusion centers in Colorado, Wisconsin, and Florida tracking anti-Flock sentiment, camera vandalism videos, and the DeFlock National Week of Action against automated license plate readers scheduled for August 16-22. The bulletins highlight Instagram accounts like Nomark.Project posting daily camera takedowns, and a device found during a June 25 traffic stop that could locate Flock cameras. Police are advised to increase patrols around ALPR locations and warned about upcoming DeFlock events, including 11 Florida cities signed up. DeFlock creator Will Freeman said the project never called for vandalism and that over 100 surveillance contracts have been canceled through civic engagement.

- Neo-Nazi group Private Aryan Resistance briefly recruited members to sabotage Flock cameras.
- Documents marked Law Enforcement Sensitive attempt to tie political activists to camera vandals.
- DeFlock is an open source, crowdsourced map of ALPR cameras started in 2024.
- Bulletins describe online groups sharing detailed instructions for damaging cameras, poles, and solar panels.
