No, I am not making a blanket assumption that we cannot have laws. I don't see how we can make collection and aggregation of data illegal, at least in the United States. Maybe it is possible in more authoritarian cultures, but those are the ones who will use it the most.
Databases of aggregated ALPR data exist and have economic value. Facebook exists and aggregates data. Can you elaborate on what kind of law you think should exist to prevent that?
- only_as_i_fall 5y agoHow about a law preventing you from tracking a person's location without their consent? What's wrong with that? Most laws depend on the concept of intent already so its not like you would have to outlaw security cameras or anything to enforce.
- mcculley 5y agoThat would make current ALPR databases illegal. Do you think that is possible?
- only_as_i_fall 5y agoYes.
