- qball 3y agoPerhaps the fact that it all of a sudden became acceptable (to put it mildly) to cover the lower half of one's face has some benefits after all. After all, who could object to a safety measure?
- bumby 3y agoA big point from the podcast isn't that the goal is to identify you or your car later as you might think. It's that they can "rewind" the footage and trace where the offender came from and show up at their doorsteps within minutes/hours. It's as much about traceability as identification. A vinyl wrap won't help that.
