Flock Safety, known for its license plate recognition cameras, once used “Made in the USA” as part of its public positioning. According to WIRED, the company now says little about where those cameras are assembled, and its current messaging is far less explicit about domestic manufacturing.
Because the devices are surveillance tools, their origin matters beyond marketing. WIRED notes that if components or final assembly involve foreign suppliers, the cameras could be subject to different legal and security environments. The lack of transparency leaves customers and regulators with limited ability to verify the supply chain behind critical public-safety hardware.
Flock has not offered a detailed public explanation of its manufacturing footprint. The shift in language, WIRED reports, creates uncertainty about a product that is increasingly embedded in American policing infrastructure.
