AI Fusion Summary

US lawmakers, including Bernie Sanders, have introduced the Ban Flock Act to prohibit the use of Flock surveillance cameras. This legislation follows a ruling by a US federal judge who declared Flock Search as indiscriminate mass surveillance. Judge Hill questioned the government's justification for tracking everyone's location continuously via automated license plate-reading cameras. While the judge emphasized the privacy violations inherent in such systems, the proposed legislation currently faces long odds of passing through the government.
