That means living in a country where the government knows where you are and where you went to at all times. Want to go somewhere King Pedo Protector doesn't approve? Enjoy your Police visit and eventually, arrest.

I couldn't imagine living in a country where my every move is being watched.

Privacy is a human right. Sacrificing your human rights just for a bit of "safety" is just short sighted.

For most people. Your human right to not be shot sits above your right to drive anonymously.

You’re defending a weaker system than the actual system.

The system you’re defending is a list of flagged plate numbers and a way of comparing seen plates against that list, and a way of reporting matches to the local police.

The actual system logs all cars seen, saves the information forever, and reports the data to a third party who can share it with anyone they want.

>>>reports the data to a third party who can share it with anyone they want.

This is a pervasive piece of misinformation. False statements only discredit you and others who choose to repeat it.

Does America not have data protection laws that prevent this sort of sharing?
