Hackers dump massive Flock camera data
A hacker collective pulled down a Flock Safety surveillance camera and dumped its internal data. The extracted logs revealed a single device captured 1.6 million images of 50,000 vehicles over a 21-day period.
// ANALYSIS
- –The sheer volume of data collected by a single camera is staggering and emphasizes the scale of mass surveillance being deployed in local communities.
- –Physical security of these devices is clearly lacking if a group can simply pull one down and extract its internal partition images.
- –The breach exposes poor data security practices by Flock, especially following previous reports of their cameras being left exposed to the open internet without passwords.
- –This incident provides privacy advocates with concrete evidence of the invasive tracking capabilities of ALPR systems.
