"The department never had a contract with Flock, but the officers used the technology in an ad hoc manner, the police said in a statement. The officers received access to Flock after representatives of the company offered them a free trial, the statement said."

Ah, the good ol' shadow IT method of selling directly to the end users. Good ol' salesman scum.
