Toney urges state action on license plate reader cameras
Original: Toney calls for state action on ALPR technology as flock cameras dropped in NE Wisconsin
State lawmaker Toney is calling for legislative action on automatic license plate reader (ALPR) technology after Flock cameras were dropped in northeastern Wisconsin. The withdrawal of the cameras has raised questions about how the surveillance technology is regulated and used, and Toney wants the state to set clearer rules governing its deployment by local agencies.
Why now: The recent removal of Flock cameras in northeastern Wisconsin has put a spotlight on how ALPR technology is regulated.
