Virginia Reporter Shocked At Extensive Capture of Her Activity Via APLR Records…
We’ve written about this new technological data gathering Automated
License Plate Readers (APLR’s) more than once. In Maryland the use of APLR’s was
linked to a Florida man who was pulled over and asked about his firearm,
presumably through CCW records data-mined by third parties and sold to the
Maryland data and intelligence hub.
Maryland authorities refused to provide records from
our Public Records requests, citing the ambiguous “Ongoing Investigation”
reasoning. Now here’s some information from a reporter in Virginia who requests
her own records and finds out how much she is tracked.
