Kinda funny how the HN crowd can both decry and advocate for automated mass surveillance at the same time.

Is this the first time you have encountered a community made up of individuals with different opinions?

The HN crowd wouldn't see the tounge in cheek humor if it hit them in the face.

Vehicles have these things called license plates and take a license to operate. It's not dystopian mass surveillance or a technical challenge to have a camera assigning tickets for operating machinery dangerously in public spaces.

Not funny -- terrifying.

In Texas, traffic cameras that automatically issue tickets are illegal. Courts ruled they violate the constitutional right to face your accuser. And look, that's how it should be.

And I certainly don't want my own car, phone, or anything else I own snitching on me while I drive.
