As Wisconsin cities flee Flock, its shared camera network loses value
摘要
近期，美国威斯康星州多个城镇因隐私和信任担忧，相继退出与Flock自动车牌识别摄像头的合作。随着退出城市增多，该共享摄像头网络对剩余城市的价值不断下降，这一现象已引发关注。以人口大县戴恩县为例，该县曾签约24台Flock摄像头，但在收到市民和隐私专家的投诉后，县监事会于4月16日投票决定削减8万美元相关资金，并禁止在该系统上进一步支出。
Perhaps it's the local summer diet of deep-fried cheese curds, corn on the cob, and Spotted Cow, but Wisconsin residents have been feeling pretty dyspeptic about Flock's automated license plate cameras.
Over the past few months, a spate of Wisconsin towns and cities have withdrawn from Flock deals over privacy and trust concerns. As they did so, another issue revealed itself: With each city that leaves, the Flock network becomes less useful to the cities that remain. And cities are starting to notice.
Consider Dane County, which includes the city of Madison. It's one of the most populous counties in Wisconsin. It was also a significant Flock user, with a contract for 24 license plate cameras. But after complaints from citizens and privacy experts, the Dane County Board of Supervisors on April 16 voted to cut the $80,000 in county funding for Flock cameras and banned "further expenditures on the system."
