Governor Pauses License Plate Cameras | Providence News
Description
Governor Dan McKee has ordered a 60-day pause on installing new license plate reader cameras statewide, pushing for clear guidelines as communities like North Kingstown pull out of contracts over privacy fears. While police see these Flock cameras as vital for safety, critics warn of misuse and erosion of civil liberties — sparking a national debate about surveillance’s limits. With the governor’s review looming, this could set a precedent for how tech and privacy collide in public policy.
