When you form your opinion about the Flock cameras, remember the original US income tax was 2%, applied to the top 2% of the population. The 1906 Pure Food and Drug Act only required accurate drug labels. American still chose their own medicine. Then In 1938, the FDA invented the "Doctor's Supervision Required" label that was codified in 1951 to require a doctor's prescription. In the short term, Flock cameras will be used to generate traffic-citation revenue. In the medium term, politicians will use the Flock cameras to enforce a per-mile tax on old cars without GPS trackers. After we get used to that, politicians will use Flock to enforce travel mileage permits. "Honey, I want to visit my mom. Please apply for another 500 miles on our travel allowance." In the long term, Flock cameras will be expanded beyond license plates to track individuals. Politicians will use the cameras to identify anti-government protestors who turn off their phones, by tracing them back to their homes. License plate tracking is just the beginning. Politicians always promise to stick in just the tip.
