Guadalupe County is cutting ties with Flock Safety after a contentious contract dispute, saving nearly $85,000—but not ditching license plate readers entirely. The county unanimously voted to end the deal as Flock Safety pushed back over unpaid fees for cameras never installed. While the sheriff’s office investigates vandalism claims against the company’s equipment, the county plans to reinvest savings into existing surveillance tech. This move underscores the broader tension: these cameras are hailed as crime-solving game-changers, yet they spark serious privacy debates—and the county must balance public safety, civil liberties, and contractual fallout.
