    No. Please no.

    That’s basically the idea of the ring ad for tracking lost dogs, but in this case it would be everybody having access.

      To be fair if ALPRs are gonna be forced down people’s throats and efforts to remove them will be foiled by the government, then it seems fair to democratize it and let everyone have equal access to footage at least. It’ll help even the surveillance playing field and might be used to keep some powerful people in check at the very least.

      I don’t want these breaches of the 4th Amendment but until they’re made illegal you might as well make some lemonade out of those lemons.
