“The far more worrying development is the unscrutinised rollout of the police automated numberplate recognition system (ANPR) for tracking vehicles, which currently stores 17bn images in its archive and is set to increase its capacity by 2018 to read and store 50-75 million separate vehicle sightings a day. Important to remember is that the decision to cover Britain’s motorways and town centres with cameras that track the movements of innocent citizens was never debated by parliament. The system was cooked up between ‘twinned’ committees from the Home Office and the Association of Chief Police Officers, which, incidentally, was a private company and immune from FOI requests.”
