This story is from the archive. It was covered between 30 September 2026 and 30 September 2026, and nothing below has been updated since. See what is happening now.

Sen. Josh Hawley is unveiling legislation to establish guardrails for Flock cameras and other artificial intelligence-powered surveillance technology, CBS News has learned.

What the coverage shows

Both CBS News and 60 Minutes frame the story around Hawley’s bill and the idea of putting guardrails on Flock cameras and similar AI surveillance technology. The wording differs slightly: CBS News says Hawley is “unveiling” legislation and says it has “learned” about the plan, while 60 Minutes says he “introduced” the bill and uses the stronger phrasing “prevent the abuse.” 60 Minutes is also the only extract that identifies Hawley as a Republican from Missouri.
