Piff, you got a smartphone right? Big brother is already in your pocket.
You use social media? Yep you already upload everything willingly.
You use any voice activated gadgets like Alexa or google what' it called, you are doing big brothers work, and you actually paid money to have them do it.



Nice try bro.

This thread needs more tinfoil hat.

Light up ads on the plate?
More Fifth Element or Blade Runner than 1984.

If you are willing to pay $700 up front, plus installation, plus a monthly fee in order to replace a "free" piece of aluminum it's probably a good idea you be tracked to protect the public safety.

Oh, and what car thief isn't going to rip this off as step one rather than drive around with a "Hey I'm stolen" tag on the back?

yep. The article sort of skips over the fact it is voluntary, none of the features are actually in place yet and the whole thing could flop like a landed fish.


It is the sort of crap I would expect to read on a site such as that

On the positive side it would make it easier to keep the "counting with pictures" thread alive...

I don't see this taking off anytime soon. The way we're doing things now is already pretty efficient, and the costs of implementing this would be pretty massive. Police already have very sophisticated ways to track vehicles.


I am speaking this as a privacy nut myself. I think something like this is eventually inevitable, but it will be decades from now.

And people won't be actually driving the cars anyway. Hell, they may not even own the cars.

Reviver Auto boasts that a total of five states have already approved their digital license plates.

Not sure where the conspiracy part is coming in. This isn't something some weirdo is thinking up in his parent's basement, they are actually doing it.
If the government can charge us for something by force as they always do and make it easier on them to do their "jobs", they'll do it. Especially
if they can make even more money by using us mobile advertising units.
Maybe we all have smartphones that are GPS tracked but they currently can't hand out speeding tickets using that method. Having our cars tracked
systematically makes it that much easier to have some agency issued ticket in the mail waiting for us. Very surprising that people are complacent with something
like this when it's clearly overreaching and nothing tinfoil hattery about it.

Quoted right from their website:

We Value Your Privacy. Reviver Auto takes user privacy and data security seriously. Data is never shared with the DMV, law enforcement, or any other third party ...

Yeah sure they won't share info with anybody, just like Google doesn't.

Dusting this one off to leave it here. Mostly because I still want a stuffed Dalek, but not enough to pay $22 for one.

But the government is not forcing this on anybody. You say you don't know where the conspiracy comments come from and then spew a bunch of conspiracy comments.

Tcoat is one of them!
