GET A WARRANT: CONGRESSMAN TAKES AIM AT FLOCK CAMERAS AND THE “SURVEILLANCE STATE”

 

Texas Congressman Keith Self is backing a push to restrict the use of Flock cameras and other surveillance technologies, arguing that Americans’ constitutional rights must come before unchecked government surveillance.

​

“The Fourth Amendment is not optional—it is the law,” Rep. Self said. “As elected officials, we swear an oath to defend the Constitution, and I am committed to dismantling the Surveillance State.

​

Supporters are calling on Congress to pass the PRIVACY Act, demanding stronger protections against warrantless surveillance and greater accountability over how government agencies access and use Americans’ data.

​

The message from privacy advocates is simple: If the government wants to track or search Americans, GET A WARRANT. What do you think? Should law enforcement be required to obtain a warrant before accessing data collected by automated license plate readers such as Flock cameras?
