What was said

"We think 90% of crimes will get solved within seven days of data retention."

Langley says Flock estimates that “90% of crimes” solved using its system can be solved with seven days of licence-plate data retention, framing the change as a privacy trade-off with limited operational cost. He and host Jason Calacanis also discuss edge cases—such as homicides discovered days later or delayed reporting by sexual assault victims—where longer retention could matter.
