Another take on this - I have google nest outdoor cameras. Recently, a car park company tried to claim I was in a car park for 7 hours. In reality, I had gone earlier in the day, come back home, and then gone back hours later - but their ANPR system must have had a glitch.
I was able to send them links to the video clips on the Nest site, with embedded timestamps.
If this was a local system there would be no way to prove I hadn't just faked the timestamps.
- mattacular 6y agoYou not having to pay an unfair fee for parking one time hardly seems like a good tradeoff for massive surveillance overreach by truly incompetent companies but maybe that was one really expensive lot or something
- listenallyall 6y ago>> no way to prove I hadn't just faked the timestamps. Showing a ticket? Parking lots have been using them pretty successfully for 50+ years
- philjohn 6y agoNot in the UK - most free parking for shopping centres use ANPR cameras so that people who are going there for a few hours can do so, but people trying to be cheeky and park there all day to go elsewhere can't.
