Florida revokes highway camera permits as Texas freezes Flock funding
Image: Primary Florida has ordered automated license-plate readers removed from state-highway rights of way within 30 days, while Texas froze state funding for the same cameras four days earlier, according to The Next Web.
Florida's transportation department revoked existing permits and stopped new ones, citing deployment growth, misuse reports, privacy concerns, and surveillance schemes. The Florida order applies to state highway rights of way, not cameras held by local police or private owners. Texas's freeze concerns state funding that had supported Flock camera purchases.
