Several Texarkana residents are asking the City Council to disable Flock Safety license plate reader cameras, citing concerns about privacy, data security, and government surveillance.
During a recent council meeting, speakers urged city leaders to suspend the contract with the company, arguing the technology collects too much personal information and could be vulnerable to misuse. Supporters of the cameras say they help law enforcement solve crimes and locate suspects.
City officials have not announced whether they plan to make any changes to the city's agreement with Flock Safety.
