Watch Flock Safety CEO Garrett Langley discuss the future of surveillance at TechCrunch Disrupt 2026

Flock Safety CEO Garrett Langley is scheduled to speak at TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 regarding the intersection of AI, surveillance, and public safety. The company has seen significant growth and valuation increases despite ongoing privacy concerns from advocacy groups.
Why it matters
As surveillance technology becomes more pervasive, the debate over balancing public safety with individual privacy remains a critical societal issue.
The debate over where the line should be drawn between privacy and public safety has only intensified in the AI era. And Flock Safety , a company that has seen both an influx of investment and an intense public backlash, sits right at the center of that debate.
That’s why at TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 , we’re bringing Flock’s founder and CEO Garrett Langley to the stage to speak about those very issues. Disrupt has always had its fair share of hard-hitting conversations, and you should expect no less from this session.
And Langley’s discussion of AI, surveillance, and the future of public safety is just one of the many compelling conversations happening at Disrupt this year, which will take place October 13-15 at San Francisco’s Moscone Center.
