Pennsylvania's House passed a bipartisan bill that restricts government use of automated license plate readers (ALPRs) like Flock cameras to law enforcement, parking enforcement, and secured access control, with strict data retention and privacy measures.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Cybersecurity, and 18 sources have reported it between 28 Aug 2026 and 19 Oct 2026.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

This law forces you in security and surveillance to redesign products to limit data retention and sharing or risk losing government contracts in Pennsylvania. You can now meet new compliance with stricter privacy measures to win state deals before the Senate votes.
