Weekly Roundup of ALPR Stories - March 22
Minnesota: There was big news this week in license plate reader data as the State classified the data as private in an opinion issued by the Commissioner. Both the Star Tribune and Pioneer Press covered the change to what data is now private and what is public.
However, this isn't the end of the story. The Minnesota legislator is still at work on the license plate controversy. In particular, an amendment passed a key House committee that would eliminate or the storage of "non-hit" license plates and limit the retention time of the data.
Regardless, it is unlikely that the public will be able to request ALPR data in the near future to continue updated Tracking of Police license plate movements. This blog may take a slightly different approach to Tracking the Police in upcoming months. Stay Tuned!
