Same author talked about adversarial license plates that trick these cameras with a sequence of black blocks, discussed here in original form [1]. He is interested in breaking both the plate detection (ideal) and character recognition (good). The examples are pretty cool looking.

In most countries, this is prohibited by law. While it might be interesting from a technical perspective, it does not help in practice.

Yep, and the overwhelming majority of people using them are not principled cypherpunks, but parking fee dodgers and habitual dangerous drivers.

Instead of a sticker like in the video make a stencil and spray diluted mud through it. Plausible deniability!

[vlovich123]

Are you also going to spray your car with mud too? Going to have a hard time explaining a spotless car that only has mud on the license plate.

Many police cars now have ghost graphics.

There were laws in many places where you could fight a traffic ticket because you couldn't plainly recognize a police vehicle, especially when a taillight or headlight is out, but now we pay for graphics to make them more invisible. "If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to worry about." I like the plausible deniability angle, myself

My car is 'self-spraying' so much I'd like it to be less so. Country life I guess.

Not a problem, the TPMS will give you away.

Get it while it's hot, cuz it's already illegal in some states, and will be in more soon!

You will be tracked and you will be happy about it.

Flock data retention is defaulted to 30 days, but can vary up to a year or longer depending on the terms of the municipality contract.

Is this retention period configured in Flock’s data lake by camera? Or by entity or agency the camera is assigned to?
