There are municipalities in the bay area that are requiring new companies' new head quarters campuses to install these readers on their own properties to monitor ALL traffic driving by them.

And if you tell anyone about which city and which company, they threaten you with legal repercussions.

That sounds egregious. Is there any way of substantiating this? Or online photos of the readers?
I received a threat after I revealed the city and company, so probably not something I can substantiate without risk.
Dang. Hopefully someone with more information and less risk can discreetly notify an attorney and/or the EFF and/or the ACLU.
