Henrico County residents expressed strong privacy concerns about the expansion of Flock Safety automated license plate reader (ALPR) cameras, citing lack of oversight and risks to data privacy and personal security. The county recently restricted ALPR access for certain public safety employees to comply with Virginia state law.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Cybersecurity.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You face increased regulatory scrutiny and public pushback over license plate surveillance technology in Henrico. This opens a narrow window to influence county policy or pivot product features to address local privacy demands.
