@LAG_Netzpolitik_BW@linke.social @palin@mastodon.social From what I've read this has nothing to do with AI, so mysterious-Substack-man might be conflating issues. I'm not sure without being able to read the source. The "Blade Runners" are taking down traffic enforcement cameras because they believe they represent "state overreach and punitive motoring taxes". Sure, AI may be used downstream with that data, but taking photos of license plates is probably the key gripe. https://automology.com/blade-runners-uk-camera-sabotage/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra_Low_Emission_Zone#Vandalism
