Featured Story: Traffic Violation! License Plate Reader Mission Creep Is Already Here
All across the country, police have convinced communities to pay for mass surveillance systems like license plate readers, claiming they will help stop the most serious crimes. But time and time again, we've seen police surveillance suffer from "mission creep." [1] Technology that was sold as a way to "catch killers" ends up being used to enforce traffic violations, track protesters, and more. [2] [3]
A new report from 404 Media sheds light on how automated license plate readers (ALPRs) could be used beyond the press releases and glossy marketing materials put out by law enforcement agencies and ALPR vendors. [4] In December 2025, Georgia State Patrol ticketed a motorcyclist for holding a cell phone in his hand. According to the report, the ticket read, “CAPTURED ON FLOCK CAMERA 31 MM 1 HOLDING PHONE IN LEFT HAND.”
If you’re thinking that this sounds outside of the scope of what ALPRs are supposed to do, you’re right. In November 2025, Flock Safety, the maker of the ALPR in question, wrote a blog post about how they definitely are in compliance with the Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. In the post, which highlighted what ALPRs supposedly are and aren't, the company wrote: “What it is not: Flock ALPR does not perform facial recognition, does not store biometrics, cannot be queried to find people, and is not used to enforce traffic violations.” [5]
Well, apparently their customers never got the memo.
EFF and other privacy advocates have long warned about mission creep when it comes to surveillance infrastructure. Police often swear that a piece of technology will only be used in a particular set of circumstances or to fight only the most serious crimes only to utilize it to fight petty crimes or watch protests. Remember: once mass surveillance systems are installed in your community, it's not just violent criminals they're watching—it's everyone.

Hi Digital Rights Supporter,
Join us on Thursday, April 16 at 9:00 am Pacific for the latest installment of our EFFecting Change Livestream Series: Can't Stop the Signal.
Internet shutdowns have become a powerful weapon. The Iranian government has once again shut down internet access, isolating millions, silencing dissent, and blocking information about human rights abuses.
This is not unique to Iran. Around the world, governments are pulling the plug to control narratives and crush resistance. But access to the internet is a human right—and people continue to find ways to stay connected.
