Automated license plate readers (ALPRs) aren’t just helping police investigate crimes anymore. They’re now being used to flag drivers for supposedly “suspicious” driving patterns.
Automated license plate readers (ALPRs) aren’t just helping police investigate crimes anymore. They’re now being used to flag drivers for supposedly “suspicious” driving patterns.
The Wired article linked by the OP article mentions visiting multiple banks in a week as suspicious behavior that gets flagged… if we had a car (assuming it needs a license plate to attach to you and look up info), that would have pinged my spouse last week. Stupid fucks live in such ivory towers that they’ve never had a bank run out of quarters for the washing machine.
They don’t know what a washing machine is. They likely think it’s to clean golf balls.
Well, that’s not wrong.
One time on Bob’s Burgers, Teddy used the restaurant’s dishwasher to wash golf balls that he had retrieved from the water hazard. So I guess a tenuous connection could be made.
I used to be a manager at a smoothie shop. went to like two banks a day with different business needs, guess that’s not allowed… who knew?
so three empty ATMs can land me in jail. good to know.
