Flock Exposed - The Building With No Name

Flock Safety operates a nationwide network of cameras that photograph the public without consent. But when journalists and members of the public have tried to document Flock's own operations - its offices, its conference, even a technician installing a camera on a public street - the company's own transparency has run out.

No Signage, No Answers

An account documenting a visit to a Flock office building reported that security would not confirm Flock was even located there, that no company name or signage appeared anywhere on the building, and that filming was not permitted on the premises.

A separate investigation reported that when Flock relocated its offices, the company instructed staff at its old building not to reveal the new address to anyone who asked, and that filming was prohibited outright at one location.

A Customer Event, Closed to the Press

In August 2026, Flock held its "Flock Forward" conference in Atlanta, billed as three days of "real cases, practical playbooks, and peer-led conversations" for public safety and security professionals.

A journalist who tried to attend was turned away, as was InvestigateTV - his registration and hotel booking had been canceled four days before the event. When InvestigateTV asked about media access, a Flock spokesperson said: "Flock Forward is a customer event and not open to the media."

Drone video and photos taken by InvestigateTV from an elevated public walkway showed law enforcement officers, some wearing their badges, socializing and browsing Flock merchandise at a rooftop reception during the event.

Filming a Public Street Got the Police Called

On August 19, 2026, in Milton, Georgia, journalist Brendan Keefe parked on a public street, wore a visible press placard and safety vest, and began filming a Flock technician installing a camera. The installer saw him, immediately packed up, and drove away.

The technician called 911, telling a dispatcher, "I work with Flock Safety. And I called originally because I'm getting followed." Keefe was stopped by responding officers for about seventeen minutes before being allowed to leave.

Questions to Ask Your Town

  • If Flock's own technicians and offices treat being filmed in public as cause to call the police, what standard does that set for how residents should feel about being filmed by Flock's cameras?

  • Has anyone from our town's police department attended a Flock-sponsored event, and if so, was that trip disclosed or paid for by Flock?

  • Would our town be comfortable contracting with a company that will not confirm its own office location to the public?
