Ice Drives Unmarked Cars. This Public Database Tracks Their License Plates

ICE drives rental cars so it's a matter of time before delusional superhero cosplayers attack a random guy in town for a shower curtain ring convention who happens to get the same car next.
advisedwang•1w ago
You have a valid point about accuracy, but we haven't seen any incidents of violence on ICE agents at all, so I wouldn't worry about this causing mistaken ones.
plorg•1w ago
Other public reporting notes that the system used, while heuristic in some cases, includes multiple different kinds of ICE ~oracles, so just seeing a rental car isn't enough for anyone to treat a vehicle as "confirmed" anyways.
elil17•1w ago
Maybe ICE shouldn't use rental cars then.

Hell knows they've got the budget for it, as last year Republicans voted to give them more money than many foreign militaries, and more than all other Federal law enforcement combined.

And now they're trying to pour even more of your tax dollars into the lawlessness:

Hell, with the way they're using them as weapons and abandoning them any self respecting rental company should be dropping them as customers anyways.

How hard would it be to create community-run license plate capture systems, not unlike those you see police use to capture license plates?
tencentshill•1w ago
The camera would have to be on private property, or someone would have to hold the camera/take shifts on a public street corner in accordance with loitering laws. Even then, they will harass and intimidate you for standing there with a camera.
rickydroll•1w ago
Well, that's two problems. First, can we build the tech infrastructure to capture license plates? Second, what are the regulatory hurdles?

To address the location issues you raised, putting a camera in your car and parking it on the street should work.
