Flock Nova - What is it?

According the ChatGPT:

What Flock Nova is

  • AI-enabled platform for law enforcement that integrates and analyzes data from multiple sources (Flock LPR cameras, RMS, CAD, open-source intelligence) to help investigators find leads and clear cases more efficiently.

  • It’s designed to be a unified intelligence interface where agencies can search across disparate systems with AI-assisted functions.

How A.I. fits in

  • Flock Nova uses AI and data analysis techniques to connect data points and surface insights faster than traditional searches across siloed systems.

  • It’s part of Flock Safety’s broader set of AI-powered investigative tools intended to help law enforcement streamline workflows and improve efficiency.

Notable debates and concerns

  • Some reports and investigations have criticized Nova’s use of sensitive data and its privacy implications, including concerns about data sources and the scope of searches.

  • Flock has publicly stated that Nova does not use dark web or breached data and focuses on pre-authorized sources like public records, OSINT, and agency data.

What Does That Mean for You and Me?

It means that they can track us in real-time. Almost instantaneously. With the combination of their License Plate Readers, their video cameras, their drones, their connection to Ring cameras on our houses and businesses, and their NOVA AI, there is practically nowhere we can go without them knowing about it, and putting that information into a database.

A surveillance State on steroids.
