"ban most uses of license plate readers, ... making exceptions only for law enforcement, toll collection, and parking regulation."
That is the worst thing. Either allow everyone or no one. Giving more and more capability to special interests is how we have gotten into being a surveillance state and become very unbalanced authority / responsibility between different segments of society.
- EGreg 13y agoAgree!
- Avenger42 13y agoI'd allow law enforcement, with the strict rule that the scanner system would have to immediately throw away any plate that they hadn't received a warrant to search for. So they could have the scanner operating at all times, but they'd never get a notification until they happen across one of the (very few) cars they're specifically allowed to track.
- njharman 13y agoOk, but then why not same rule for others, such as repo?
