Flock, a surveillance technology company, has faced backlash after it was revealed that its sales employees accessed cameras in sensitive locations, including a children's gymnastics room, as part of sales demonstrations. While Flock confirmed the access occurred with city authorization under a demo partner program, it denied any inappropriate conduct, stating the access was for product demonstrations and debugging. Following public outcry and concerns raised by a resident who obtained access logs via a public records request, Flock has agreed to cease using Dunwoody's cameras for demonstrations and will only conduct them in more public areas.
