Knowing where automated license plate readers are located is nice, but it doesn’t erase the “legitimate public safety risk” posed by the vast amounts of data this technology collects, EFF’s @tsnvaa.bsky.social told @LPM.org. www.lpm.org/investigate...
Nearly 200 license plate readers keep watch on Louisville drivers. LMPD won’t say where they are
License plate reader cameras are growing in popularity among police nationwide. But some local agencies refuse to disclose device locations.

The hypocrisy is the point. It's the message, and the message is simple: "You must abide by the rules. We can ignore the rules. We have agency. You do not. We matter. You do not. We are superior. You are not."

If I recall correctly, it’s about enlistment. They’ll tell you if you have tattoos you can’t enlist, but it’s actually not true you can get a waiver for tattoos as long as they aren’t hate symbols.
Sounds like it’s about allowing the enlistment of maga and other hate groups to me.

I finally got an answer back from CPD on Carlos Baker’s status. He’s the cop who fatally shot his partner, allegedly shortly after she ended their relationship.
“Officer Baker is on Active Status, assigned to the 6th District and Detailed to Unit 376.”
376 is the Alternate Response Section.

So: a walking embodiment of ACAB who, even by pro-cop standards, should never have made it past probation and at best killed someone by incompetence and will cost the city milliions is technically still employed and no coverage I've found says if he's getting paid or not.
Not fired, just relieved of his police powers. It could take years to actually fire him.
