alt Hacker NewsI have my complaints about this, but "blue areas" over the last several decades have meant "all major metros", and some forms of crime are just endemic to density, and in some sense all crime simply tracks population.
But we don't have to agree on that; people everywhere care about crime, and the promises ALPR vendors make, while arguable, are not ludicrous.
In my area, for example, there are counties where if a thief can escape there, they will not be prosecuted. So I support Flock since it gives a higher chance of interception in my county, which will prosecute them.
