Summary
An Illinois college installed Flock surveillance cameras in 2025 to improve safety, but students reported feeling afraid. The school later discovered the cameras were sharing data with law enforcement, including Customs and Border Protection. After concerns grew, the college asked Flock to remove the cameras, but the company refused. Employees covered the cameras, only for unknown individuals to repeatedly uncover them. The contract expired in 2026, and the cameras were finally removed.
