You're Being Tracked

Thousands of mass surveillance cameras have been installed in our cities without our informed consent. We are a team of citizens working with our city councils to halt this threat to our privacy and civil liberties. Our mission is to have an Arizona free of mass surveillance, and to Live Free AZ. Please join us.TRIUMPH IN SEDONA!
On September 9 the Sedona City Council voted unanimously 7-0 to terminate the Flock contract and take down the cameras. Sedona is now the only city in Arizona to terminate their contract and remove the surveillance cameras. Our united front of citizens caused an unprecedented shift for freedom!

TEMPLATE FOR REMOVING SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS IN YOUR CITY

  • File a public records request on your city’s website to see if they have a Flock contract

  • Create a group of 3-4 residents who work well together

  • Meet with a member of your city council to schedule an agenda item about the issue

  • Once you have an agenda item, use all your resources to invite residents to attend and comment

  • Find a local reporter who is interested in this issue (Jen Barber [email protected] is an investigative journalist in Phoenix who reported extensively on our story). Write OpEd pieces in the local newspapers

  • Set up a table at farmers markets, pickleball courts, etc. distributing postcards and hand deliver them to city hall. Email and meet with city council members

  • Prepare your comments, deliver what you will say into the mirror so it flows and is under the time limit. You want to feel confident and powerful when you speak

  • After the council meeting, you will know what steps to take next

  • If the contract is not canceled at this meeting, keep the pressure on. They need to know the residents will not give up on this, that they are watching, and they will persist politely until the cameras are taken down

  • This issue is supported by people all across the political spectrum, from liberal to libertarian, so you will need to work with people you normally wouldn't

  • When the Flock contract is terminated and the cameras are down, have a party with everyone, invite the city council members and mayor!
