Texas man seeks to have armed robbery conviction tossed over no-warrant Flock camera search

A Texas man serving a 60-year prison sentence for armed robbery is petitioning a federal appeals court to overturn his conviction. His legal challenge centers on the use of an AI-powered Flock camera system by law enforcement to track him without a warrant.

The case has brought renewed attention to growing privacy concerns regarding automated surveillance technologies. The appellant argues that the extensive capabilities of the Flock camera network grant police an unprecedented level of surveillance power outside of traditional warrant requirements.
