A company that operates a vast nationwide network of automated cameras that record the license plate numbers and other characteristics of all passing vehicles every day is making changes to its platform.
PR damage control in full effect, theyre hurting! Keep cutting!
Typical. Corp does evil, people get wise to it and take action, politicians and advocacy groups like the ACLU call for some “adequate safety measures”, and corp does damage control. The cameras stay up, the network expands, and a future OTA update rolls back whatever concessions the corp and cops made now after giving the frogs time boil.
Well I don’t want “adequate safety measures”. I don’t care about the “balancing act” between surveillance police state tech and privacy that this article mentioned. There is no compromise. These cameras should not exist and anything less is unacceptable.

Oops! There was a regression error and we accidentally rolled back the privacy mitigation! And we’ll accidentally do it again later, too.
It’s more insulting than that. They’re hedging their bets that they won’t have to do it at all in the first place, first.
Their fascist die roll doesn’t land, then they can swap to the standard corpo bullshit described above.
Evil PEOPLE do evil shit. Don’t let these criminals escape into the aether.
