IPVM was featured in an article by the American Civil Liberties Union's (ACLU) Jay Stanley, arguing that public bodies shouldn't purchase technology from companies that refuse to allow independent testing. The article focuses on two companies in particular that have refused to allow IPVM testing: Flock and Evolv.
