Four Flock Safety cameras in one Long Island town were vandalized in July as backlash against the software grows nationwide — with one wild case including claims a cop down south illegally used it to track her lover. The AI-powered cameras, located in the Long Island East End town of Southold, were targeted amid a wave of anti-Flock backlash featuring similar kinds of vandalism that is sweeping the country, Southold Police Chief Steve Grattan confirmed to The Post.   “We had two cameras vandalized on July 4 weekend — both had paint splattered on them and one had the wires unplugged,” Grattan said.
