thats how it is now though ?

  As part of a Flock search, police have to provide a “reason” they are performing the lookup. In the “reason” field for searches of Danville’s cameras, officers from across the U.S. wrote “immigration,” “ICE,” “ICE+ERO,”

One, an officer could put fuck you in that field and execute the search.

Two, those queries aren’t automatically public.

then what is the proof for the title of this post

> Oakland cops gave ICE license plate data; SFPD also illegally shared with feds

Well they didn't. The reason we just read the article we read was because they looked in the logs, and the logs included well written reasons that were illegal. So they wrote an article.

How does stopping them from writing "fuck you" in the field (which they provably didn't, considering they found the queries), or giving you access to it, help in any way in this situation? You're going to have to make an argument here for it to make any sense.
