> Fourth, what will the state do with that data from speed cameras? We've already seen the abuses with automated license plate readers. See the article at EFF about those abuses.

See also American Dragnet:

> The agency [ICE] has access to the driver’s license data of 3 in 4 (74%) adults and tracks the movements of cars in cities home to nearly 3 in 4 (70%) adults.

It's more surprising that they don't have a supervisor standing there watching them shuffle the cards and load the shoes to be sure they aren't manipulating them.

As well as even allowing employees to gamble. You can't gamble at foxwoods if you work there, you need to go to Mohegan sun if you want to gamble and vice-versa.

In this case since the same company does both draftkings and FanDuel they shouldn't be able to use either platform.

I retired BECAUSE it was getting too scary on 84 every morning, and every evening. People drive crazy now. 30 years ago, people drove in their lane until their exit came, and then they got off the highway. Now, people drive like it's a pinball machine, and they're they only car on the road. weaving from right lane to left lane through the middle lane, far too many times as I was in the middle lane 2 cars passing me on both sides only to try to both be in front of me in the middle lane at the same time, only for one of them to veer off just before the collision right in front of me.... I finally said fuck it. My life is worth more than this. I've been wishing for these ticketing cameras for a few years now. Don't give a damn if the driver owns the car or not. If he/she's driving the car, fine. you get a ticket. If you don't own the car but let someone else drive it, fine. You won't do that again.

Ahh, this seems like the sequel to the flyer I got while I lived in Hartford at the beginning of covid about the rapture and the illuminati
