What law?

California's SB 34. The article in question even links to it. https://calmatters.digitaldemocracy.org/bills/ca_201520160sb34 https://calmatters.digitaldemocracy.org/bills/ca_201520160sb... California's AG: https://oag.ca.gov/system/files/media/2023-dle-06.pdf https://oag.ca.gov/system/files/media/2023-dle-06.pdf > Importantly, the definition of “public agency” is limited to state or local agencies, including law enforcement agencies, and does not include out-of-state or federal law enforcement agencies. (See Civ. Information Bulletin 2023-DLE-06 Code, § 1798.90.5, subd. (f).) Accordingly, SB 34 does not permit California LEAs to share ALPR information with private entities or out-of-state or federal agencies, including out-of-state and federal law enforcement agencies. This prohibition applies to ALPR database(s) that LEAs access through private or public vendors who maintain ALPR information collected from multiple databases and/or public agencies.

  > Existing law prohibits the department from selling the data or from making the data available to an agency that is not a law enforcement agency or an individual that is not a law enforcement officer. Seems like the law was explicitly written to allow sharing data with other law enforcement agencies then narrowed down by Code, § 1798.90.5, subd. (f). https://codes.findlaw.com/ca/civil-code/civ-sect-1798-90-5/ https://codes.findlaw.com/ca/civil-code/civ-sect-1798-90-5/

    Your link supports my point. > “Public agency” means the state, any city, county, or city and county, or any agency or political subdivision of the state or a city, county, or city and county, including, but not limited to, a law enforcement agency. Notably: Not federal. My link to the AG's memo quotes this.

      Yes. I am not disagreeing with you that they have narrowed down the definition of law enforcement agency. My comment actually links to the section the AG is quoting.
