ALPRs photograph passing cars and record where and when they were captured, creating a searchable map of people’s movements. Requiring police to get a warrant before searching this data would place a legal check on mass surveillance and protect location privacy. Have you encountered ALPRs in your community, and do you think police should need a warrant to search their data?
