New #Surveillance Tech Just Dropped That'll Help Cops Track More Than Just Your #LicensePlate
Like #ALPR, you can't "opt out." Devices are known as #SignalTrace, or more specifically #ELSAG SignalTrace, which looks to retrieve data from electronic devices like your phone, smartwatches, wireless devices, cars, even air tags. The purpose of this device is, used in tandem with ALPRs, to help pair devices read from Bluetooth, RFID, and Wi-Fi, with your car and license plate

This Company Will Add #Phone , #AirPod , and #Smartwatch #Trackers to #LicensePlate Readers

A #surveillance company plans to add #sensors to automatic license plate readers (ALPRs) that would mean the devices, as well as capture the license plate of passing vehicles, would also sweep up unique identifiers of mobile phones, wearables, and other Bluetooth-enabled devices in those cars, potentially letting law enforcement identify specific drivers or passengers.

The technology, called #SignalTrace , would turn #ALPR #cameras from devices focused on #tracking cars to ones that can more readily track the location of particular people. ALPR cameras have become a commonly deployed technology all across the U.S.; SignalTrace would make some of those cameras capable of collecting much more data.
