Troy City Council restricts license plate reader technology
Original: Troy City Council passes new restrictions on license plate reader technology
The Troy City Council has approved new restrictions on the use of automated license plate reader technology within the city. The measure places limits on how the surveillance cameras, which track vehicle movements, can be deployed and how the data they collect is handled, reflecting ongoing debate over privacy and police surveillance.
Why now: Growing public concern over privacy and surveillance has made local decisions on license plate reader rules contentious.
