National Licence Plate Surveillance Grid Tracks Anti-War Protesters (VIDEO)

0 votes

Britain is to have a national network of cameras and computers that automatically log and track car license plates, in a move described as “secretive and unregulated” by privacy advocates.

The system will be operational within months, according to the BBC.

“Police forces across England, Wales and Scotland will soon be able to share the information on one central computer.” the report states.

Local councils all over the country are queuing up to connect their existing CCTV cameras to the national system. Any camera, if high enough resolution, can be adapted to work with the new software.

Critics have pointed to incidents where “undesirables”, such as people who have taken part in anti-war rallies, have already had their cars marked by police and added to a central “hotlist”.

Some have been stopped in their cars by anti-terror police units and questioned under threat of arrest for no good reason.

Actually saw something on

Actually saw something on the front page of the newspaper about a month ago here in South Florida about somehow attaching a camera to the side of the cop cars so that when they are driving on the highway and such they can scan every single car they are behind or at an angle with and can record every liscense plate and not only that but can remember what the location was of the car at that time

can remember what the location was of the car

All the information they can freely access is scary.
