Flock is a public safety technology platform that operates in over 4,000 cities across the United States, and solves about 2,200 crimes daily. That’s 10 percent of reported crimes nationwide. Taken from a16z’s recent LP Summit, a16z General Partner David Ulevitch  joins forces with Flock Safety’s founder, Garrett Langley and Sheriff Kevin McMahill of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department. Together, they cover the delicate balance between using technology to combat crime and respecting individual privacy, and explore the use of drones and facial recognition, building trust within communities, and the essence of objective policing.   Resources:  Find Garret on Twitter: https://twitter.com/glangley Find Sheriff McMahill on Twitter:  https://twitter.com/Sheriff_LVMPD Find David on Twitter:https://twitter.com/davidu Learn more about Flock Safety: https://www.flocksafety.com   Stay Updated:  Find a16z on Twitter: https://twitter.com/a16z  Find a16z on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/a16z  Subscribe on your favorite podcast app: https://a16z.simplecast.com/  Follow our host: https://twitter.com/stephsmithio  Please note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.
