They actually have a great product, and they’re canceling it? The new ones were kind of expensive already, but every app supported it and it was very nice

You’re missing the additional list mentioned later on, also includes Lenovo and some others

I know of companies who have already tested and tried this our years ago, didn’t read the article but doesn’t seam very new to me

Yeah this is basically what happened, the vote share for labour was very low, below 40 (don’t recall the exact number)

So the very first assertion the article makes is that this creates a giant database of sensitive information (presumably the license plates).

That’s just straight up not true? How can you write an article about this and make such a basic wrong assertion.

Any reasonable system would work as such: Scan plate -> is it allowed to be here? -> if noy store violation, if yes don’t send data

EDIT:

It seems like they really do be scanning every single license plate and storing it for no reason.

So that’s an absolute lie, I run synapse + WhatsApp bridge with 500MiB. Dendrite is supposed to be more efficient
