For what it's worth, your original comment is a little hard to parse, particularly because you say "our pilot deployment" which makes it sound like you were involved in deploying the cameras. Combined with your realpolitik comment about knowing your neighbors want them, I think several people are confused about your opinions and what you ended up doing to fight the cameras.

It isnt that hard to parse and it is very clear what position the commenter holds they state it

> I'm not reflexively anti-ALPR camera. I don't like them

Even LLMs can correctly parse this commenters intention.
