The "Immutability" of Flock's Audit Logs
Flock Safety caught lying, again.
Jason Hunyar has done some fantastic investigative work on his town’s implementation of Flock Safety's products.
You may remember back in April, when Jason reported about Flock Safety employees misusing Dunwoody, GA’s live and recorded camera streams:
Why Are Flock Employees Watching Our Children?
He uncovered that employees at the Atlanta, GA-based company were using their camera feeds for their sales pitches.
More alarmingly, he found that a business development manager named Randy Gluck viewed 4 cameras at the Marcus Jewish Community Center on August 23rd, 2025 before settling on “Main Pool Right”:
Later, Flock Vice President of Strategic Relations and Business Development Bob Carter logged into a single camera in the girl's gymnastics room at the JCC on September 30th, 2025:
Jason continued to monitor Dunwoody’s user and audit logs through open records requests. This week he wrote a follow-up:
Caught Watching Our Kids, Then Wiped
In this report, hes proven that Flock’s claims of immutable (permanent and unmodifiable) audit logs is untrue.
In comparing user logs from before his original report on March 26th and after on April 15, 2026, he found that gymnastics enthusiast Bob Carter’s user was removed from Dunwoody’s user list, with no record in the audit log of it having been done. The logs show that a user named Martin Howley deleted 9 users in the system (including one of his own alt accounts), but no record of Bob Carter’s user deletion exists. In addition to Bob Carter, 16 other Flock employees were missing from the second user list, with no audit log records showing their deletion.
He also found a record in the audit log that shows someone changing a configuration setting named “ShowSearchAudit”:
I wonder what that does?
It’s clear that Flock’s immutable audit logs are anything but. It’s employees were caught doing highly questionable searches, then they tried to cover it up by altering their audit logs. No immutability means no transparency or accountability.
Flock Safety is a company that cannot be trusted to keep our data safe and they cannot be trusted to tell the truth.
Flock has the flu Mayor Turner, and it's coughing all over the place. We must cancel our contracts with Flock Safety.
