For years, Flock surveillance cameras have been recording license plates and vehicle movements across Indiana.
Now, the tables are turning, and residents have a new way to find out where some of those cameras are located.
Privacy technology company Proton has made a free, publicly accessible map available that allows Indiana residents to search for reported Flock surveillance cameras in their neighborhoods, including Indianapolis, Gary and communities across the state.
The information comes from an inventory obtained by cybersecurity researcher Joshua Michael from Flock’s systems.
The records include more than 170,000 cameras nationwide, along with other surveillance devices.
However, the map is based on information from December 2025. Some cameras may have been installed, relocated or removed since then, so it should not be considered a live or complete inventory.
The development comes as Indiana communities continue debating Flock’s automated license-plate readers, particularly questions about government surveillance, police access to vehicle records, privacy protections and potential misuse.
Supporters argue these cameras help police solve crimes, recover stolen vehicles and locate suspects. Critics question whether recording the movements of ordinary residents who have committed no crimes crosses a line.
And now, in an ironic twist, the same public that has been watched by these cameras can look up where the watchers have been stationed.
Have you checked your neighborhood yet? Are you surprised by how many cameras are around you? And do you support these systems, or do you believe Indiana has gone too far with surveillance?
