Automated License Plate Readers (ALPRs) are AI-powered cameras that capture and analyze images of all passing vehicles, storing details like your car’s location, date, and time. They also capture your car’s make, model, color, and identifying features such as dents, roof racks, and bumper stickers, often turning these into searchable data points. These cameras collect data on millions of vehicles—regardless of whether the driver is suspected of a crime. While these systems can be useful for tracking stolen cars or wanted individuals, they are mostly used to track the movements of innocent people.

Will they actually be able to peck thru the lens on a real one after getting trained on the feeder? Do they have enough strength / force?

Whoa whoa whoa, that's not the intention at all! Why would you think that?? Clearly this guy is just making a unique bird feeder and has no ulterior motive or ill will towards these flock cameras. In fact, if we all just made bird feeder like these I'm sure it would help with the birds not accidentally pecking the real cameras...

I imagine a bird beak could end up with grit embedded in it so over time I bet they would get scratched up pretty bad
