Concerns about privacy and potential misuse of technology have led to changes in access to Flock camera data. The number of outside agencies able to access this data has been significantly reduced, from over 1,500 to 202. All of these agencies are located within Texas.

Sharing of Flock data with federal partners has also been stopped. The cameras, equipped with license plate readers, provide real-time information to help locate vehicles tied to crimes and find missing people. Some Flock cameras are set to be deactivated due to loss of state funding, citing reported misuse.
