Skimming the map, I see many listed are in parking lots for Home Depot and Lowe's. I assume that's because of high dollar items and common theft issues? I'm wondering if those cameras are specifically operated by this Flock company, or others as well.

It is specifically Flock. For a bit of data, check around page 110 of this report on data sharing between camera operators: https://cdn.muckrock.com/foia_files/2025/07/23/JCSO_Agency_S...

They are in my experience flock only. They are financially a smart decision for those types of businesses. They one get some analytics tracking out for the box(which a Walmart might already be doing themselves) but more importantly they bridge local police with know shoplifters. As soon as the identified car enters the parking lot both the police and Walmart know.
