My brother & I talked about this a decade ago, about how easy it would be for the parking patrol officers (aka [in another age] meter maids) to scan your license plate and gps location for parking enforcement. So now they've advanced the technology to give them the ability to collect data for more serious offenses. That's not all bad. Where would the Tsarnaev investigation be if Big Brother hadn't been watching?
We don't have an expectation of privacy in public places. Get used to it.
