And You Thought Traffic Cams Were Bad

September 20, 2017

People who thought that traffic cameras were an invasion of privacy are in for an unpleasant surprise:

These days billboards can snap your license plate, get an impression of the type of car you drive, pick up your cell signal, and assess your demographic —all to help businesses target their marketing to specific areas.

Probably the only people happy with this scenario, besides the businesses themselves, are the municipalities who will have a much easier time in traffic court dealing with Invasion of Privacy defenses. I mean, after these billboards, the traffic cams look tame!
