Poll: Wisconsin voters believe Flock cameras are unnecessary privacy violation

(The Center Square) – The majority of Wisconsin voters believe that Flock Safety cameras are more an unacceptable violation of privacy rights than an important tool for police investigations, according to a new Marquette Law School poll. The poll showed that 62% of registered voters believe the cameras are an unacceptable privacy issue while 37% believe they are an important tool for police. The survey was conducted Oct. 14-22, interviewing 818 Wisconsin registered voters, with a margin of error of +/-4.3 percentage points. The poll showed that 55% of Republicans believe they are an unacceptable privacy issue along with 69% of Democrats and 65% of independents. That’s similar to the 63% of overall voters that said the same in September . A Center Square Voters’ Voice Poll recently found that 39% of registered voters believe that the cameras should only be used for serious crimes or emergencies while 29% say that the cameras are worth using because they help law enforcement investigate and solve crimes. Another 25% said that the cameras create too much risk to personal privacy and government surveillance while 8% are not sure.
