Role at the time: Chief of the Green Bay Police Department, interviewed by WTAQ-WLUK

Defended or excused

Response to this claim

Flock's August 2026 safeguards meaningfully address privacy and misuse concerns about its license-plate reader network.

“We’ve required for a while now that anyone entering a search for a license plate in the system include a case number and a specific reason. I’m glad to see them rolling that out nationwide”

Why we used this label

The case asks whether Flock's August 2026 safeguard package (a seven-day default retention period, Evidence Mode, offense-based sharing limits, mandatory Audit Assistance, proactive lockouts and case codes) addresses privacy and misuse concerns about its plate-reader network. Davis says he is glad Flock is rolling out the case-number requirement nationwide and treats the shorter retention default as worth considering. Defended or excused fits because he approves of the safeguards he discusses and voices no doubt about them. Mixed or conditional is the closest competing label; it loses because his plan to review retention with investigators is a practical step, not a reservation about the package.
