Protesters gathered outside Ripple co-founder Chris Larsen's home in San Francisco to oppose his financial support for police surveillance systems, including automated license plate readers by Flock Safety. Larsen's foundation committed $7.25 million to relocate and upgrade the police Real-Time Investigations Center, with Ripple providing rent-free office space valued at $2.15 million.

The protest highlights debates over private funding of public surveillance and ongoing calls to cancel Flock contracts in Bay Area cities.
