> However, I've seen multiple times where cops initiate a felony stop

At what point do we accept that all systems are flawed? There could be many variables as to why the perp wasn't in the car. Maybe the perp stole the car. Maybe the perp borrowed the car. Maybe these systems do not work well in fog etc etc. I don't know how we're supposed to advance technology that makes us safer without getting into these muky situations from time to time.

Why do anything at all?

		Why even deploy such systems? I would support less for sure.

Technology is a means to an end, not the end itself. If you can’t make it safe then don’t deploy it.

There must be some level of acceptable failure.

		Flock, like Palantir, is the Torment Nexus from the famous novel Don’t Create The Torment Nexus. Considering the potential and demonstrated abuse there must be more robust guardrails than currently exist. The required level of safety is more like “nuclear launch codes” or “commercial airliner”, not “local used car lot landing page”. This juice ain’t worth the squeeze.
