New Orleans axed its Palantir crime contract in 2018 over cost & privacy.

After public outcry, New Orleans declined to renew a secret $200K/yr deal with data firm Palantir — mirroring Harris County's debate over whether Flock camera costs are worth the budget strain during a fiscal crisis.

Harris County is larger than the entire state of Rhode Island!

At ~1,777 sq. miles, Harris County dwarfs Rhode Island (1,545 sq. mi.). That vast footprint helps explain why deploying a countywide license-plate camera network like Flock Safety carries such a hefty price tag.

Flock Safety cameras read license plates in under 1 second!

Flock Safety, founded in Atlanta in 2017, has deployed over 5,000 cameras across 2,000+ U.S. cities. The AI-powered cameras flag stolen vehicles and wanted plates automatically — making them popular with police but controversial over privacy.
