A proposed bill seeks to establish clear restrictions on the use of license plate data collected by law enforcement agencies and private companies. This legislation comes amid growing concerns about privacy and the potential misuse of such data.
One notable example involves the tech company Flock, which has utilized automatic license plate readers to assist in implementing the Trump administration's immigration policies in Minnesota. This use of technology has raised questions about surveillance and civil liberties.
The bill aims to address these issues by outlining specific guidelines and limitations on how license plate data can be collected, stored, and shared, ensuring greater transparency and accountability.
