Hello Hackers!
This month we are joined by RECONLESS who will be presenting his
talk “Electric Eye: Automated License Plate Readers, Minnesota
Regulations, and Tracking the License Plate Trackers”:
> Learn about ALPRs (Automated License
Plate Readers), what they do, why they are popular, regulations in
Minnesota surrounding them, recent drama with the largest ALPR
provider, learn about the community of people mapping the
locations of ALPRs, and how to add ALPR locations to said map.
> Bio: RECONLESS (he/him) is a software engineer of 6 years at
a large legal technology company, specializing in web scraping,
content/data normalization, cloud infrastructure, and
security/SDLC best practices. He’s also a cybersecurity hobbyist,
interested in legal compliance, consumer rights, and the odd
Capture The Flag here and there.
Meeting will be on Discord. If you need an invite, look no further:
