Should Flock Cameras Be Banned? | Charles Fain Lehman

Flock cameras are spreading across America – and so is the bipartisan backlash over privacy, government surveillance, and police abuse. Manhattan Institute's Charles Fain Lehman returns for a conversation about Flock cameras and whether the growing calls to ban them are justified. How does the technology actually work? How are police departments using it to solve crimes and track suspects? What safeguards exist to prevent abuse? And where does the use of Flock cameras cross the line from effective law enforcement into an unconstitutional surveillance state?   Charles Fain Lehman is a fellow at the Manhattan Institute and senior editor of City Journal. He focuses primarily on the public policy of antisocial behavior, including issues of crime, drugs, and public disorder.
