Description

Rhode Island cities are locked in a fierce debate over Flock cameras—automated license plate readers that police say solve crimes and find missing persons, but residents fear erode privacy with no state regulations to guide their use.

With no clear answers, the state faces a growing tension between security and civil liberties.
