Pro-government narrative

Florida's own numbers make the case — Florida wildlife agents used these cameras to track environmental critics who spoke out against the agency, and a Florida woman spent seven months clearing her name after Flock misread her plate and tied her to a theft she didn't commit. DeSantis called it "out of control" for good reason — pulling the cameras is the easy part; the state's larger surveillance habit is the real problem.
