My personal experience with these types of camera is based on a conversation I had with a friend who’s a public defender in washington state. She said it can be nearly impossible to figure out who owns or put up all the random cameras you see at traffic intersections. Also good luck trying to subpoena the footage. And this is from someone who has greater access to government information than the typical citizen and had reason to find out.

- travmatt 6y agoThat’s the strategy Marlo Stanfield’s crew in “The Wire” used to learn who was investigating them.
- rnotaro 6y agoI mean the owner sticker and information is literally viewable from the camera. Not that hard to find who they are from that case.
