Hackers Got Inside a Flock Camera. Its Data Shows How the System Really Works

Hackers stole a Flock Safety camera, copied its storage, and recovered an encryption key exposing vehicle surveillance data and system internals.

Hackers from the collective stegan0gram removed a Flock Safety license plate reader from a roadway, copied its storage, and recovered an encryption key stored in an unencrypted partition, unlocking videos of thousands of vehicle detections. The data, shared with 404 Media, WIRED, and Distributed Denial of Secrets, shows the camera generated roughly 1.6 million images of about 50,200 vehicles over 21 days and detects people, bicycles, and bumper stickers in addition to license plates. The dump follows 2025 research by Jon 'GainSec' Gaines documenting flaws enabling root access, which Flock downplayed. Flock's national network makes camera records searchable by more than 2,000 agencies, fueling controversy over police and immigration lookups.

[AINews] Claude Fable/Mythos 5.1: new SOTA model, 75% cache price cut but 70% more output tokens

Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5.1 and Mythos 5.1, claiming new SOTA benchmarks, with 75% cache-read price cut and 1M-token context.

Anthropic released Claude Fable 5.1 and Mythos 5.1 as flagship models for coding and knowledge work, with a 1M-token context window and pricing of $10/$50 per million input/output tokens and cache reads cut 75% to $0.25. Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index scored Fable 5.1 at 66 versus 63 for Claude Opus 5, with HLE at 59.1% and Terminal-Bench v2.1 at 91.4%, though per-task cost rose ~20% due to 1.7x output token usage. Community analysis suggested Fable and Mythos may share underlying weights with different safety/routing behavior, and release notes highlighted Enterprise Frontier Safeguards and zero-data-retention support.
