Flock Pitches Turning Uber and Lyft Drivers Into License-Plate Surveillance
Flock planned to scan license plates using dashcams installed in large numbers of Uber, Lyft, and delivery drivers’ vehicles, turning rideshare drivers into mobile surveillance units. A presentation shared after a public records request described an active Nexar partnership, citing about 350k devices. It remains unclear whether app drivers would have been aware of the data collection.
