Through research compiled by Policing Project staff, the independent Ethics Board examined law enforcement’s use of automated license plate readers (ALPRs), the resulting threats to civil liberties and racial justice, and the possibility for the rise of pervasive surveillance systems. The Board concluded that the growing availability of low-cost ALPR systems, which would be further propelled by Axon’s entry into the ALPR market, has the potential to increase dramatically law enforcement’s use of the technology. The Board further concluded that the use of ALPRs is precariously unregulated or under-regulated in many jurisdictions.
