Who gets to search the license-plate cameras?
On Moonshots with Peter Diamandis, the panel used Flock Safety's camera network — and a costumed speaker at a San Diego council meeting — to ask what happens when police departments can search each other's plate data.

Peter Diamandis defended the safety side of the trade, and the panel debated David Brin's proposal to let citizens search the same cameras.
