Flock cameras keep telling police a man who doesn't have a warrant has a warrant

A Hacker News thread debated repeated false warrant flags tied to Flock license-plate cameras and a Colorado driver.

Commenters said the root cause may be inconsistent police plate records and investigation failures, not the camera system alone.

The case shows how automated surveillance can amplify bad data and lead to repeated stops of innocent people.

It also raised broader concerns about accountability, civil liberties, and the use of AI in policing.
