The video, shared on July 8 by Matt Van Swol, shows the incident in New Bern, North Carolina, and drew strong online support with many calling the men heroes for resisting mass surveillance tools. Flock Safety cameras, used by thousands of agencies nationwide, scan license plates and vehicle details to aid investigations like recovering stolen cars, but critics including the ACLU argue they enable warrantless tracking of innocent drivers. Similar vandalism has hit areas like Pageland, South Carolina, and Houston, highlighting growing tensions over privacy versus public safety as the network scans billions of plates monthly.<br /><br /><br />Police in North Carolina asked the public to identify two men who recently cut down a brand-new Flock camera. ]]> Thu 09 Jul 2026 10:37:42 +0200 https://theworldwatch.com/videos/1617367/this-will-start-to-happen-a-lot-more-often/
