License plate readers collect data: A system that ostensibly was set up to help police enforce traffic laws by capturing images of license plates combined with a date stamp of their location is capturing much more than license plate numbers. Certain AI-powered cameras that have been mounted on vehicles with the intention of capturing license plates are also capturing images of bumper stickers, campaign signs in people’s yards, and even the T-shirts that individuals are wearing. The photograph system produced by DRN Data is used by everything from private investigators to repossession agents to insurance companies. It is building a trove of billions of date- and location-stamped photos. This database effectively allows for people’s political views and their homes to be queried. In other words, it’s a vast surveillance system. What could go wrong?
