I mean, California Highway Patrol seems to disagree.
> “If any CHP personnel requested license plate data on behalf of ICE for purposes of immigration enforcement, that would be a blatant violation of both state law and longstanding department policy,” the spokesperson wrote. “If these allegations are confirmed, there will be consequences.”
- aerostable_slug 1y agoYou missed the key phrase "for the purposes of immigration enforcement." If they're looking for a load of meth, it's fair game.
- ceejayoz 1y agoIt's not a key phrase. It's alleged that this particular violation was for that purpose. The law itself - https://calmatters.digitaldemocracy.org/bills/ca_201520160sb34 https://calmatters.digitaldemocracy.org/bills/ca_201520160sb... - doesn't specify immigration purposes. https://www.404media.co/ice-taps-into-nationwide-ai-enabled-camera-network-data-shows/ https://www.404media.co/ice-taps-into-nationwide-ai-enabled-... also indicates a number of specific requests had "immigration" as the given reason.
