What are the privacy implications of this? For example, in the EU under GDPR, would you really be allowed to collect information on, for example, license plates, time and location? It seems to me that you could argue that license plates are "personally identifiable information" and collecting this type of data could, with or without intention, mean that you are collecting data on people's whereabouts.
- zejn 7y agoNot every plate may idenfity a person (cars can be owned by companies and used by different employees and so on), but a significant number of cars is owned and driven by a single private owner. You can't easily discern if a license plate does or does not map to one individual, thus if you can't prove that the license plate does not map to a specific person, you should assume it does. Thus the license plates can easily be argued they are PII.
