## Resource

Judge Lina Hidalgo is demanding transparency on Harris County’s controversial Flock license plate cameras, calling for a public meeting to address urgent privacy concerns after the Commissioners Court extended their contract — despite her abstention and unfulfilled promises to add safeguards. With reports of officer misconduct involving these systems, including tracking ex-wives, Hidalgo wants answers: how long have they been deployed? What data is collected? Who has access? And how many cameras are actually active? She insists this critical conversation must include residents, law enforcement, tech providers, and elected officials — because the public deserves to know what’s being watched and who’s watching.
