Not clear to me what the "External organizations with access" actually means or who decided which organizations to add to the list, but it's curious to me that the campus patrol for a college 250 miles away (SUNY Old Westbury) has access to camera data from Ithaca.


(Ex Flock Employee) It's as simple as that agency saying "Hey, can we have access to your camera data?" and the originating agency saying "Sure".

Flock (deliberately, IMHO) has no verification on whether said agencies are allowed by law or regulation or whatever to have that access, it's just a free-for-all.
