Florida bans Flock cameras and other license plate readers from state highways

In stopped clock is right twice a day news, Florida is moving to ban Flocks from state highways.
Aside from Florida, there is a bunch of momentum all around the US now. Some cities just moved to another ALPR vendor like Axon. That sucks ofc. But many have eliminated ALPR entirely too, after citizens spoke out! Some cities had a constant stream of ppl speaking at city council meetings about it, months on end, dozens of ppl in every meeting.
It's harder to deal with Flocks on private property. Like Home Depot and Lowes. A city gov terminating its own contract, doesn't stop Home Depot. I dream of a coordinated, nation-wide boycott of co's that put private Flocks in their lots. And letting them know exactly why.
Let's keep the anti ALPR momentum going. It's starting to see results. And don't fall into the illogic of thinking it's not perfect, therefore it's useless.
