You probably drove past one today.

Automated license plate readers photograph every passing car, read the plate with AI, and log where you were and when — no warrant, no notice, no consent. Most people have no idea whether there’s one on their street, how long their movements are kept, or who else can search them.

This is the 5-minute version of finding out.

Are You Being Tracked? is an 8-point exposure self-assessment. It shows you where to look for readers near you, the four questions that determine what your local police can actually do with the data, and your first three lawful moves if you don’t like the answers.

No fear-mongering, no myths, no conspiracy. Every claim in it is sourced to court records, mainstream reporting, or the vendors’ own documents — including the widely repeated claims that turn out to be false, because repeating one of those in public is the fastest way to be dismissed.

It’s free, it’s shareable, and it takes about five minutes.

If you finish it and want the whole thing — the documented abuse record, the constitutional argument, the records-request templates and the 90-day campaign communities have used to get cameras removed — that’s The Flock Files.
