Flock Security mandates abuse-detection tool but keeps its workings opaque

Surveillance firm Flock Security has announced it will make a new tool called Audit Assistance mandatory across its entire customer base. The company claims the tool is designed to help identify instances of police abuse and says it has already produced results. However, Flock has not provided a detailed explanation of how the tool actually functions. The lack of transparency has prompted questions from observers about whether the tool is genuinely effective. Critics argue that without clarity on its methodology, the tool's value remains difficult to assess.
