You Are Being Watched


On May 16th you left your office at 11:13 am,  at 11:27 you were at the McDonald's on First Street,  you returned to your office at 12:05 pm.

We're not quite there yet, but soon will be:

Police across the USA are using automatic cameras to read and snap digital photos of millions of car license plates to help solve crimes, but in the process stores information on millions of innocent people, the American Civil Liberties Union says in a report out Wednesday.
License plate scanners are "in effect, government location tracking systems recording the movements of many millions of innocent Americans in huge databases," said ACLU staff attorney Catherine Crump, the report's lead author.  USA TODAY

So, how do you like being tracked?
