Ring cancels integration with Flock Safety over privacy concerns, halting shared data with law enforcement.
Ring has canceled its planned integration with surveillance firm Flock Safety, halting a partnership that would have linked Ring doorbell footage with Flock’s license plate recognition systems and law enforcement databases.
The move follows public backlash over privacy concerns, including fears of expanded surveillance, potential misuse by agencies like ICE, and the promotion of AI-powered features like Search Party and Familiar Faces.
Ring cited increased time and resources needed for the integration, while Flock said customer and official feedback led to the pause.
No customer data was transferred, and the collaboration was mutually ended.
The decision reflects broader scrutiny of how consumer security tech connects with law enforcement and the need for transparency in public safety tools.
