Certainly interesting but I'm not sure I see where this would be worthwhile for someone to attempt adversarially vs using a license plate reader. Maybe there are situations where a camera is too noticeable or there's a risk of plates being obscured. So I could see it making sense for high security facilities to try and track these IDs but I don't see a big motive for anyone to defend against this sort of tracking.
- defrost 3y agoInteresting question. For LEO obvious use case(s) would be (if worth the effort) attaching an ID to a vehicle with either NO plates OR plates that don't match the expected plates from prior tyre matches (all 4(?)). If this is extended to Quad | scooters | motor bikes it may some trail applications for off road (no plates) reglation enforcement | evidence. For the privacy concerned, it's one more thing to be aware off during their next jewel heist.

(and for the truly paranoid, as pointed out earlier on HN, there's gait analysis) (those who are tinfoil paranoid about being tracked by jurisdictions well removed from their local jurisdiction might wish to choose someplace urban with many passageways under roads and between buildings, or even better, subways?)
