DeSantis bans Flock cameras on state roads in Florida

Florida's Department of Transportation revoked all permits for automated license plate readers on state highway rights-of-way on Monday, giving law enforcement agencies 30 days to remove the devices or have state crews take them down.

The FDOT memo cited an "exponential increase in deployments" alongside "concerning reports of misuse, data privacy concerns and surveillance schemes" as justification for the ban. Agencies that fail to comply within the deadline face removal by state crews.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott also ordered state agencies to halt funding for Flock cameras last week, citing abuse of the surveillance system, including the indictment of a Lufkin officer on 100 felony counts for allegedly searching the database without authorization.

Sheriff's offices in Duval, Clay and Putnam counties announced they would discontinue use of the technology. In Tampa Bay, two officers — one in Sarasota and one in Haines City — were fired and arrested for allegedly using plate reader databases to stalk romantic interests.

Flock Safety, which operates around 130,000 license plate readers across the U.S., said the ban was the wrong response, arguing its technology had helped find missing children, led to the arrest of a murder suspect and assisted in solving other crimes in Florida.

More than 150 cities have canceled or rejected license plate reader contracts, according to anti-surveillance group DeFlock. Gov. Ron DeSantis called on state lawmakers to pass legislation on LPRs, warning Florida should not become "a digital AI surveillance state."
