Dodge County, Wisconsin · Nonpartisan privacy campaign

Ask your supervisor to ban networked plate readers in Dodge County.

Dodge County already has Flock-style ALPR cameras logging where vehicles drive. Those records can be searched and shared across agencies—often without a warrant.

Tell the County Board: no county purchase, lease, or operation of networked ALPRs—and no multi-agency sharing of that location data. Privacy isn’t partisan. Get the flock out of Dodge.

Privacy is not a left/right issue

Both civil-liberties groups and conservative constitutional litigators are raising the same concern: warrantless mass location tracking.

ACLU of Wisconsin / EFF

ACLU-WI says Flock remains “incredibly invasive” mass surveillance whose use “should require a warrant based on probable cause,” plus independent oversight— not police self-policing. EFF argues networked ALPRs are purpose-built to track everyone regardless of suspicion.

WILL (conservative / liberty)

The Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty sued Waukesha County and 11 municipalities (Sep 10, 2026), arguing warrantless Flock Location Database searches violate the Fourth Amendment and seeking a warrant requirement before searches.
