More License Plate Reader Mission Creep: School Residency Verification, Background Checks, and Noise Complaints
An EFF analysis of millions of searches of Flock Safety automated license plate reader (ALPR) data by police has uncovered a troubling pattern: in the absence of a warrant requirement to search ALPR databases, law enforcement agencies have moved beyond specific investigations to use these surveillance networks for virtually any whim.

@eff after having to call the cops on whoever was blasting music on the corner so loud that it was 90 decibels inside my apartment twice a week for months, I wish you had picked a different example to highlight. Permanent ear damage and being unable to work on Mondays because it’s impossible to sleep at 90dB is not some minor problem that should be treated so dismissively.
@eff
That. Is. Just. Friggin WRONG.
I suggest someone in the US (I am In Greece) starts a movement to take them down, PHYSICALLY.
