The surveillance company Flock told employees at an all-hands meeting Friday that its new people search product, Nova, will not include hacked data from the dark web. The announcement comes a little over a week after 404 Media broke the news about internal tension at the company about plans to use breached data, including from a 2021 Park Mobile data break.Immediately following the all-hands meeting, Flock published details of its decision in a public blog post it says is designed to "correct the record on what Flock Nova actually does and does not do." The company said that following a "lengthy, intentional process" about what data sources it would use and how the product would work, it has decided not to supply customers with dark web data."The policy decision was also made that Flock will not supply dark web data," the company wrote. "This means that Nova will not supply any data purchased from known data breaches or stolen data."Flock Nova is a new people search tool in which police will be able to connect license plate data from Flocks automated license plate readers with other data sources in order to in some cases more easily determine who a car may belong to and people they might associate with.404 Media previously reported on internal meetings, presentation slides, discussions, and Slack messages in which the company discussed how Nova would work. Part of those discussions centered on the data sources that could be used in the product. You're going to be able to access data and jump from LPR to person and understand what that context is, link to other people that are related to that person [...] marriage or through gang affiliation, et cetera, a Flock employee said during an internal company meeting, according to an audio recording. Theres very powerful linking.In meeting audio obtained by 404 Media, an employee discussed the potential use of the hacked Park Mobile data, which became controversial within the companyI was pretty horrified to hear we use stolen data in our system. In addition to being attained illegally, it seems like that could create really perverse incentives for more data to be leaked and stolen, one employee wrote on Slack in a message seen by 404 Media. What if data was stolen from Flock? Should that then become standard data in everyone elses system?In Fridays all-hands meeting with employees, a Flock executive said that it was previously talking about capabilities that were possible to use with Nova, not that we were necessarily going to implement when we use Nova. And in particular one of those issues was about dark web data. Would Flock be able to supply that to our law enforcement customers to solve some really heinous crimes like internet crimes against children? Child pornography, human trafficking, some really horrible parts of society.We took this concept of using dark web data in Nova and explored it because investigators told us they wanted to do it, the Flock executive said in audio reviewed by 404 Media. Then we ran it through our policy review process, which by the way this is what we do for all our new products and services. We ran this concept through the policy review process, we vetted it with product leaders, with our executive team, and we made the decision to not supply dark web data through the Nova platform to law enforcement at all.Flock said in its Friday blog that the company will supply customers with "public records information, Open-Source intelligence, and license plate reader data." The company said its customers can also connect their own data into the program, including their own records management systems, computer-aided dispatch, and jail records "as well as all of the above from other agencies who agree to share that data."As 404 Media has repeatedly reported, the fact that Flock allows its customers to share data with a huge network of police is what differentiates Flock as a surveillance tool. Its automated license plate readers collect data, which can then be shared as part of either a searchable statewide or nationwide network of ALPR data.

Hello and welcome to the latest Creepy Kiki, PRIDEs weekly dissection of all things that go bump in the (gay) night. Were officially halfway through 2025 and just a few months away from spooky season, and already this has proven to be a really exciting year for the horror genre in general, but especially for queer horror. That said, this week I thought it would be the perfect time for a mid-year horror binge, and playing a little game of catch-up by focusing on the seven queer horror films that dropped this year that you may have already missed shocking, I know! From haunted houses to haunted minds, queer obsession, and coming-of-age, 2025 is already proving to be a year for thought-provoking, transgressive, hilarious, and chilling horror. So, without further delay, here are the queer horror films you may have missed and where to watch them.Dead Mail Dead Mail is a true oddity of a film, and I mean that in the very best way possible. It feels less like a movie that was released and more like one that was discovered somewhere, tucked away on a dusty, hidden shelf. It follows a host of characters and revolves around a bloody piece of mail that shows up in the lost mail department of a small town post office. Jasper (Tomas Boykin), the post offices investigator, begins tracking down leads. If hes successful in putting the pieces together, theyll lead him to a grisly discovery set in the world of competitive synthesizer building. Yes, competitive synthesizer building. It's a story about loneliness and obsession, and its queer in every sense of the word. The definition of a hidden gem.Dead Mail is currently streaming on Shudder.FrwakaFrwaka is another wonderfully unique film. This folk horror outing from writer-director Aislinn Clark, delivered largely in the Irish language, follows a lesbian named Shoo (Clare Monnelly) who, fresh off the passing of her mother, takes a job caretaking for an ailing woman (Brd N Neachtain) whos convinced that the fae folk are trying to break into her home. While at first adversarial, the two women grow closer, bonding over their shared history of trauma. As such, when Shoo begins to suspect that there might indeed be something ancient and evil in the basement trying to get in, its not immediately clear if this is a supernatural horror or a case of folie deux. Lesser films would leave the answer frustratingly ambiguous, while this one blessedly chooses a side and leaves audiences with a haunting climax that is equal parts chilling, aching, and inevitable.Frwaka is streaming now on Shudder.Clown in a Cornfield Proving once again that queer horror can also just be a ton of fun, Clown in a Cornfield is a classic teen slasher thats both nostalgic and surprisingly queer. This film is based on the first volume in the popular book series by Adam Cesare and follows Quinn (Katie Douglas), a teen who moves from the city to the small town of Kettle Springs, Missouri. Once there, she begins making new friends and is excited for a fresh start in the flyover states. Things take a turn, however, when she and her friends find themselves the target of Frendo the Clown, the town's former mascot, whos picking off teens in a string of gruesome killings. You know, classic slasher stuff. Why is it on this list? Well, it features a queer twist that I won't be spoiling, but I can confirm that it's meaningful to the plot of the film! Clown in a Cornfield is currently in theaters and heading to digital on June 10.CompanionCompanion made waves when it hit theaters in January, and if you missed it, nows a great time to circle back on this darkly funny take on modern dating. The film centers on a group of friends spending a weekend together at the lake house of one of their rich (and shady) pals. Following a fatal incident, it quickly becomes clear that no one there is quite who they seem and the love stories between each of the couples are tested and their truths revealed. The film stars Harvey Guilln and Lukas Gage as one of the couples and, frankly, they steal the show.Companion is streaming now on Max. The ParentingThe Parenting proves that the only way introducing your partner to your parents can be any more terrifying is to have the proceedings crashed by a thousand-year-old demon. In this star-studded (Im talking Edie Falco, Lisa Kudrow, Dean Norris, and Parker Posey) horror comedy, Nik Dodani and Brandon Flynn star as a couple who invite their respective parents for a weekend of getting to know one another.Think Meet the Parents but make it gay and add a lot more ectoplasm and a naked Brian Cox and what you end up with is The Parenting.The Parenting is streaming now on Max.There's a Zombie OutsideThere's a Zombie Outside may have flown under your radar, but this very queer textually and subtextually film focuses on a gay filmmaker (Ben Baur) whose reality begins to blur as a monster from his film begins creeping around at the edges of his reality, while he and his boyfriend and their friends are away at a cabin retreat.Metaphors for queerness, identity, and artists' struggles abound in this indie horror film. So if you like horror packed with theme and symbolism, this is a must-see. Plus, it features a cameo from drag legend Peaches Christ!There's a Zombie Outside is available to rent on Prime Video. Bloody Axe WoundOK, I admit it, this last selection is a bit of a cheat. Not because it isn't queer (it is very queer) and not because it isn't a solid horror comedy (it is), but because it technically hit Shudder on December 27, 2024. But Im making the call and including it here anyway because it's just over the line and likely got lost in the holiday season shuffle. It's also great, and sapphics deserve nice things, too!Bloody Axe Wound follows Abbie Bladecut (Sari Arambulo), the daughter of a slasher killer (Billy Burke) who, as dads health begins to fade after one too many resurrections, has been tapped to take his place. There's just one problem: she's already fallen in love with Sam (Molly Brown), one of the nubile teens shes tasked with killing as part of her initiation. It's quirky and sweet and perfectly blends the queer coming-of-age genre with a supernatural slasher. Its a strange combo, but it just works.Bloody Axe Wound is streaming now on Shudder. And with that, this weeks Creepy Kiki is adjourned! Ill be back with more highlights on queer horror next week. In the meantime make sure you like and follow us on YouTube for more queer news and pop culture content.

British canoeist Kurts Adams Rozentals says Paddle UK has sidelined him from the World Class Programme due to his work on OnlyFans, forcing him to choose between Olympic ambition and financial survival.Rozentals, 22, won a place on UK Sports lotteryfunded scheme in 2022 and claimed a C1 silver at the World Under23 Championships in 2023, but was suspended in April pending investigation under Paddle UKs Athlete Disciplinary Policy. While the governing body did not publicly detail the allegations at the time, Rozentals posted on his Instagram that he believes they relate to the explicit videos he has been posting on his subscription-based OnlyFans channel since January.See on InstagramRozentals has now publicly addressed the controversy, telling BBC Sport, Ive been posting videos that are consciously made to be edgy in order to drive conversions to my spicy content page to fund this ultimate dream of going to the Olympics. He said the 16,000 ($21,552) annual grant he received from Paddle UK is certainly not enough to cover rent, travel, and living costs for a fulltime athlete based in London.Rozentals estimates he has earned more than 100,000 ($134,704) in under six months on OnlyFans, where he posts uncensored footage and selfpromotional clips on Instagram to steer followers toward the platform. I did whatever it took to never be in that position, he told Sky News. Was it unconventional? Sure. But to ban me from racing thats f**king insane.See on InstagramAccording to Sky News, Paddle UK said the interim action was taken to safeguard other athletes, staff and volunteers due to the nature of the allegation and is a neutral measure, not a disciplinary sanction. The policy cites offensive use of social media and indecent, offensive or immoral behaviour as potential grounds for action. The investigation has been passed to Sport Integrity, an independent service.Rozentals insists he should not have to choose between making ends meet and pursuing his sporting career. When youre thinking about how to pay the rent at the start line, thats not very conducive to performing well, he told BBC Sport. This is the hardest decision that Ive ever faced in my life.He added that without a change to the way athletes are funded, he sees no future collaborating with Paddle UK. Unless something changes in the way athletes are paid, I dont see a way of working with Paddle UK, he said, as he awaits the outcome of the investigation.

Jojo Siwas much-talked-about relationship with her fellow Celebrity Big Brother star Chris Hughes has raised eyebrows, and now The Traitors winner Gabby Windey is sharing her two cents.Never one to mince words, Windey skewered Hughes while talking to Trisha Paytas on Thursdays episode of the Just Trish Podcast.Windey explained that shes been watching Hughes since he was first on Love Island and doesnt have a good feeling about his new relationship.The 34-year-old former Bachelorette star said that not only is there a 10-year age gap between Siwa, 22, and Hughes, 32, but the pop star feels young and is "kind of like a kid still.Not only does Windey think the age gap is too big, but also that Hughes intentions arent pure.When Paytas asked if Windey thought Hughes was in it for the clout, Windey agreed.@spillsometeawithme1#trishapaytas #fyp #gabbywindey #jojosiwa #oliviaattwood #chrishughes #justtrish #trishlikefish88Yeah. Hes so desperate. He has a face full of filler, Windey said, because you can always count on to speak her mind.Watching the clips on social media, which I know it's kind of hard to get the full context, but I'm like, this feels creepy, she explained.Watching and seeing it like it felt like you were at work and like Darren was coming up behind you, giving you a massage, and youre like Im sending you to HR, she continued.Paytas agreed, saying that shes for Jojo but that shes obviously stunted" from being a child star and that people are always clout chasing and it feels like Hughes is using her.Windey was also careful to put the blame squarely on Hughes shoulders.And she was in a lesbian relationship, and now it's straight, and it's like, with an older guy, like, it's very different, not saying it's right or wrong, Windey said. Like, she can explore sexuality, and it's not personal with her. I think he's the one at fault, of course, but she needs to be careful.Watch the full episode below.
