Automated License Plate Readers (ALPRs) are AI-powered cameras that capture and analyze images of all passing vehicles, storing details like your car’s location, date, and time. They also capture your car’s make, model, color, and identifying features such as dents, roof racks, and bumper stickers, often turning these into searchable data points. These cameras collect data on millions of vehicles—regardless of whether the driver is suspected of a crime. While these systems can be useful for tracking stolen cars or wanted individuals, they are mostly used to track the movements of innocent people.

Axon's Fusus is another tech on my radar that has been concerning me for the last few years.

Essentially it takes Ring cameras and any camera stream really to build the info-dragnet for authorities. You can take down the most visible cameras but that doesn't change the need to address the root of the problem which is how the image data is used and shared without your consent.
