Is that a .gov car?
Repo companies drive around the ‘hood scanning plates all day long.
Yep. I believe someone even has a channel on YouTube where they do this. I would not want that job.
My wife would get SO tired of seeing ads that target me. Scan our plates, and my name would come up.one step closer to minority report style ads.
scan your eyes and infomercisls for you john doe.
Not quite sure what the outrage is.
Oh, and in some places .gov hires private contractors to do the scanning and they transmit the info back to the bat cave.
i know a guy who works for a plastic surgeon in FL. He looks for women who didn't pay their augmentation bills. spends all day at the beach scanning for them. Well, I want to know him. Actually, that's my dream job.
Now I know, this scans the cars info and not necessarily the driver info but it's still not cool.
Scan my Jeep see it belongs to me, search my records, see I have an unpaid ticket. Send officer to pick me up.
Isn't that a bit agaisn tour 4th amendment.
(I don't have any unpaid tickets that's just an example.
It's. One of thier damn business. I'm also not of fsn of cops running plates durning traffic stops.
If I'm speeding that has nothing to do with the vehicle I'm in. Scan my plate if you suspect the car is stolen.
Much like officers who pull you over for speeding and take your gun to go run the numbers to see if it's stolen.
Not cool.
That why I plan to either build or buy a lic plate frame that will block the camera from reading my plate.
***Edit***
Yes I know I went full tin foil hat with my rant. Esp since you can Google my lic number and get my address bc it's my ham radio lic
