It's an interesting consideration of privacy. In a sense, nothing has changed by having these readers--your license plate was always visible. There was nothing stopping the city from hiring people to stand on a street corner and record the plate numbers that passed by. Except the practicality of it, of course. Im not going for or against it, it's just an interesting consideration of information being available, but unused. We keep seeing this happen with arrest records, face recognition, etc. These are things that were always available, but technology simply made them more convenient or available at scale, even though nothing fundamental had changed.
