— Sep 8, 2026
InvestigateTV and other outlets show a core paradox in Flock Safety’s ALPR network: a system built to watch drivers triggers concern when the watcher is filmed or questioned, revealing deep privacy and civil-liberties tensions.

Long-term monitoring across 62 summits reveals that losses rise with warming and that “extinction debt” and competitive replacement by upslope invaders explain why local extinctions accelerate even as total species numbers climb.
