EFF Asks Appeals Court to Require Warrants for License Plate Searches

Original: We're Asking an Appeals Court to Require a Warrant for ALPR Searches

The Electronic Frontier Foundation is urging an appeals court to rule that police must obtain a warrant before searching automated license plate reader (ALPR) databases. The group argues that these systems track drivers' movements on a massive scale, and that unrestricted searches of the collected data violate constitutional privacy protections.

Why now: Concern over mass surveillance of drivers' movements and the constitutional limits on police access to license plate tracking data
