    The plate readers have been installed for almost 10 years. They were initially installed in limited areas, in particular on 19th. They were catching a lot of stolen cars / car thieves this way as plates got read. So this is not new - they're just expanding the program.

How many people’s life’s and wallets people have been unjustifiably affected before those cameras were discovered to be faulty often mis calibrated in a manor that would increase revenue for the city and the third party companies who monitored them.owned those cameras. Speed cameras will even be worse. The problem with the license plate readers are once we allowed them to install one, it now paves the way for city state even federal agencies to install run programs and devices to spy or earn profits at its citizens expense. We are allowing the city, state and govt agencies usher us into a police state.

    People are calling this a surveillance state. That is so stupid. If people are aware how much information they’re giving away by not reading terms and services from tech companies, license plate readers are not bad. Crime is rampant this helps.

      How? Check your terms and services they say they may share your data with 3rd parties. They’re called data brokers. They will sell your information

      True but you do not need to participate. At least you have that option. Your data is being collected without your consent with these plate readers. Do you seriously believe they only collected data of people breaking the law?

      @@jjtru21 you’re misunderstood, you already did consent for you data to be collected and sold by agreeing the terms of service the minimum you make your account. Such as UA-cam and they make it annoying to opt out. It’s not opinion it’s right there in the writing. In terms of plate readers your information is already collected with the DMV, many cars such as Kia are being stolen and used for crimes. They collecting data on every one of course it’s not just criminals.

    If you aren't committing crimes these cameras will not be tracking your license plate. Anyone scared of a "surveillance state" should move to Idaho.
