City leaders, along with law enforcement officials gathered to announce the launch of a program that will install 100 license plate reading cameras in the San Fernando Valley that authorities believe will help police track criminals down.

Officials said that some neighborhoods north of Rinaldi Street in Porter Ranch have some of the highest crime rates in the city, which is why several cameras have already been installed in the area.

“Last year, the Devonshire District reported that homes north of this very street experienced a 103% jump in home burglaries,” District 12 Councilman Jon Lee said at the event.

Dozens more of the automated license plate readers, or ALPRs, will be installed at major intersections throughout the northwest San Fernando Valley by the end of the year, including across Porter Ranch, Chatsworth, Northridge, Granada Hills, West Hills and North Hills.

This trend is pissing me off.

If it were used only to track down criminals, it might be worthwhile. But we know that’s not going to be the case, as it will become yet another political tool.

How many days before they steal all the cameras?

They stop putting criminals in jail, then they start surveilling everybody.

Now that's equality.

Any paid highway does the same. This is the wonderful information age we love in.
Feel like a number. Think that’s a song!-)

LPRs are being deployed at the entrances of many WalMart parking lots.

Retail theft hurts all of us.

I believe if a non human system captures your personal information with out your permission that constitutes unreasonable search and siesure why we let computer systems do this I have no idea, why companies and governments want to do this, sure I can understand that. They just want to help us.

[Organic Panic]

They will be removed in a few days because they “disproportionately effect people of color in undocumented reparations vehicles.”

[metmom]

They always give some BS excuse for tracking us.

It’s not going to be used on criminals.

It’s going to be used on AMERICAN CITIZENS.

I live in the area covered. I shop at Porter Ranch Walmart and Ralphs grocery store among others and live 1 block away from West Hills. The gov’t will know everywhere I travel.

I will have to give up committing crime...

We LPRs are all over Georgia. Many are permanent and others are moved around to different areas weekly in my hometown (Dacula, GA).

I think that they are a Constitutional violation but there is no way to get around without them picking up my information.

Big Brother is always watching you.

People are going to find out that Bible Prophecy is coming like a runaway freight train. COVID-19(84) was a huge wake-up call.

There was a reason "A Thief in the Night" picked "UNite"



the (local branch) of the Global “UNite I.D. Center”)



For those who might not know "0110" was how "6" was represented in EBCDIC binary coding (Extended Binary Coding Decimal Interchange Code) - this was the basis for IBM / Amdahl / other mainframe computers from the 1960s-early 2000s - There are still these types of machines today - this is why the movie used such a symbol to represent "666" (the binary coding by position is "8421" so "0110" actually represents "0420" - digits are added so the sum is "6"

Fed into an AI algorithm, your behavior profile data can be used and sold for product sales (what stores you drive by and stop at), criminal profiling, and an unlimited host of nefarious criminal govt. purposes.

[Racketeer]

Why people allow this I will not ever know. Punishment for crime become less severe and crime numbers escalated. Now, the gooooooooooberment wants to know what all of us are doing under the guise of protecting us from crime.

People need to lock and load.

They stop putting criminals in jail, then they start surveilling everybody.

IMO, that is exactly why they import criminals.
The Commies have always wanted to keep tabs on everyone but there is not enough crime among ordinary hard working folks to justify it.
So they import the problem in order to justify the "solution".

Not crazy about these since I cannot even buy a quart of milk without being logged in their database (cameras everywhere where I live), but they did work to quickly catch the Operative who was setting up to try to take out Trump in Florida.

This is a CLASSIC safety vs. privacy issue...and I’ll leave it at that.
