    The one small positive note is that the cameras don't (yet) record audio. I'm sure they want to, eventually though.

    I feel like audio is the one thing that's just not super useful to them. these are pretty much all dedicated roadside cameras where all you're gonna hear is car noise.

    Now, harvesting every wifi and bluetooth device near your public roadway... that's a different matter.
