Rand Paul Backs Keeping Flock Cameras but Requiring Warrants

Sen. Rand Paul supports keeping Flock Safety's 120,000 cameras used by over 5,000 police agencies but wants individualized warrants before accessing long-term location data. Critics warn that written limits alone won't prevent secret access.

• Flock Safety runs 120,000 cameras for 5,000+ police agencies with no warrants
• Paul seeks individualized warrants for long-term location tracking data
• Proposed safeguards include data minimization and local-only storage
• Critics cite NSA's secret metadata collection exposed by Snowden
