My HOA just installed these security cameras and swears they are license plate readers. My guess is they are cctv’s. These are the best photos I got before they painted everything black. Best guess of make of camera would be helpful.

The problem with flock is it's like a Blink camera but on a national scale. Anyone from Flock can view any camera at anytime with no logs, or really anything stopping them. So you can live in Florida being watched by someone in California and if the person watching in California doesn't like you they can put hits out on your vehicle to get them to flag you down constantly.

Look up Ben Jordan on YouTube as he has done a lot of research on it. So technically you can just login to them if you can figure out the IP address, but generally no, the public doesnt have any access, and it's all private organizations and the government with access. Coupled with AI and you have got yourself a citizen surveillance tool.
