Is Your Town Being Secretly Watched? (A Guide to Taking It Back)
Look around your town. Your Main Street, your neighborhoods.
Feel free? That feeling is being quietly dismantled.
A company called Flock Safety is weaving an invisible net of surveillance cameras across thousands of American towns, yours could be next.
They call it "safety."
We call it a corporate occupation of our liberty.
Part I exposed the threat. Part II is your battle plan to take back your town, starting with five minutes and one friend. This is how we win.
Step 1: The 5-Minute Community Check-Up (Find Their Plans)
Your local government's website holds the key to their plans. For five minutes a week, go to your town or city's official site and look at the public meeting agendas.
Search for these keywords:
Flock Safety
ALPR (Automated License Plate Reader)
Surveillance Technology
Public Safety Contract
Are they talking about it? Are deals being signed without public knowledge? This simple check-up puts you ahead of the game.
Step 2: Find Your Wingman (Your Local Freedom Crew)
Do not do this alone. Find one person. A neighbor, a friend, a coworker who values privacy and freedom as much as you do. Share this article. Talk about it. When two of you stand together, your power more than doubles.
You are no longer a lone voice; you are the beginning of a community movement.
Step 3: The Two Moves That Change Everything
With your wingman, you are now a force. Here are two simple, powerful moves that shift the balance of power back to you.
Move 1: The Polite Email That Demands Answers.
Copy and paste this template. Find the email for your Town Council, City Council, or Select Board on their website and send it. This forces them to go on the record.
**Subject: Inquiry Regarding Public Safety Technology**
"Dear [Your Town Council / Select Board Name],
As concerned residents of [Your Town's Name], we are writing to understand if our community is currently using or considering Automated License Plate Reader (ALPR) systems, such as those offered by Flock Safety.
We would appreciate any information you can provide regarding existing contracts or future proposals, as well as details on data privacy and usage policies. Thank you for your time and for your service to our community."
Sincerely,
[Your Name(s)]
Move 2: The 60 Seconds of Power.
Show up to a public meeting.
You don't need a speech. Just stand up during the public comment section and state your position.
"Hello, we are residents who are concerned about the potential use of mass surveillance technology in our town. We respectfully ask that no contracts be considered or signed without a full, transparent public discussion."
You've just put the entire town on notice.
This Is Our Town. These Are Our Rules.
Freedom isn't a subscription service. It's our birthright, and it's defended in town halls, not just battlefields.
You've finished the article. You feel that fire in your gut. Good. That's the feeling of your liberty waking up. But don't let it stop there. Anger without action is a sedative the system uses to keep you passive. It's time to turn that fire into a floodlight.
Understand the game we're in. The social media platforms where you found this are a strategic battlespace. They are designed to bury messages like this one. Your engagement is not a vanity metric; it is a weapon against an algorithm of suppression.
LIKE this post. It’s the simplest way to signal-boost it past the digital gatekeepers.
COMMENT below. Tell us your town. Tell us you're ready. Even a single word proves a real human is here, thinking and resisting. Every comment forces this message into new feeds.
SHARE this article. This is the most powerful move you can make. Send it directly to one person you know in your community. That isn't just a click; it's an act of counter-propaganda. It’s a beacon you're lighting to find the others who are ready to stand with you.
This is how we find each other in the dark. This is how we build the foundation for real-world change, one small, compounding act of defiance at a time.
SUBSCRIBE. It's your direct, unfiltered line to this mission. It's how we build our own network, one that can't be throttled or silenced.
Because in Part III, we follow the money and build the army. The work has just begun. Get ready.
