You’re right, but Flock (and all of these cameras) is bad for the liberty of the people, so this is good. Any time a national security threat is found, it shakes the trust in these systems, so they’re less likely to be trusted again.
The worst thing is that this isn’t exactly new. The house heard about the vulnerabilities of this system in May.

Unfortunately, we’re in such a state of plutocracy and regulatory capture that even stating how big of a national security risk they are did not make any movement until now.
In other words, it only makes movement when the general public finds out and starts sabotaging their cameras?
