Flock cameras can help police find stolen cars and solve crimes. But they can also create a record of where vehicles have been — raising questions about privacy and police surveillance.
MPR News guest host Catharine Richert talks with a data privacy expert about what kind of information Flock cameras collect, who can access that information and what limits the Constitution puts on tracking our movements.
Guest:
William McGeveran is the dean of the University of Minnesota Law School, where he teaches courses on data privacy.
