An editorial (possibly a nat’l syndicated one) about calculators appeared in the Louisville Courier-Journal in the 80s or 90s. My grandmother cut it out and sent it to me. A much more interesting article, truncated, was on the back of the clipping. I was so disappointed.

I hope the @economist.com realizes that its story this week on Charlie Kirk was so lousy that it must assign the author some remedial reading such as Moira Donegan‘s perceptive and well-researched editorial and the very fine article in @jamellebouie.net’s newsletter.

I know they don’t own them, but can’t they pay the $500 removal fee or evict the equipment if it is on public property? Help me understand.

Interesting! The cameras would stay on public property with lapsed permits until the city took them down?

A lot of elected representatives are just barely curious about the technical and legal dimensions. The vague and misleading statements from Flock satisfy them. Illinois amended its FOIA law to protect/conceal ALPR records. Maybe the stagecoach carrying the news only just reached Stanwood? :-)

It’s not all of the plate readers. I discover unmapped ones all of the time. The information is crowdsourced. The website tells how to contribute.
