Flock installed its surveillance cameras without permits, and has now been banned from operating in two states

Excerpt:
In June of 2022, an Illinois DOT official in contact with Flock representatives told the company it had many repeated, error-filled permit applications for camera installations. A Flock representative gave the IDOT official a thinly-veiled threat that if they didn’t fast-track the process, Flock would send “about 30 different police chiefs” to their office to talk to them about it.
Now that's ballsy. The State of Illinois needs to take them to court in no uncertain terms and seek highly punitive damages, financially of course. And if there are, in fact, "police chiefs" ready to storm their office (which I doubt) they also need to be reminded just who they work for.
