A blog post recounting how a Flock surveillance camera led to a woman being jailed is drawing attention to what critics call a serious lack of oversight of automated camera systems. Privacy advocates argue large technology companies have little financial incentive to fix flaws in systems that track people, and the case is being cited as evidence that regulation of surveillance technology is not keeping pace with its deployment.
Why now: The wrongful jailing linked to a Flock camera has reignited debate over accountability and oversight of surveillance technology.
