  • Lansing Weighs ALPR Ban Amid Privacy Debate | Lansing News

    Lansing’s city council is poised to ban automated license plate readers after ending its contract with Flock Safety, sparking a fierce debate over privacy versus public safety. Advocates, including the ACLU of Michigan and local groups, push for a full shutdown, citing violations of Fourth Amendment rights and echoing Ypsilanti’s 2022 precedent. Law enforcement sees ALPRs as vital for tracking stolen vehicles and suspects, while critics like DeFlock Lansing argue the data collection itself is inherently invasive. Councilmember Peter Spadafore confirms they’re drafting a potential ban ordinance, expecting it to take six to eight weeks before voting. Meanwhile, three bipartisan state bills are pending to regulate ALPRs across Michigan.
