    Its 6056 scans per device on average per day. Or roughly 4.2 scans per minute per camera.

    Imagining a device hooked up to the on-ramp/off-ramp of the highway, and I imagine a camera could hit this easily.

    Definitely seems accurate enough for a news headline.

    It’s the back-end bit of “cities pushing back” that triggers my skepticism impulse. These devices are everywhere precisely because municipal leadership is so easily bought off (or outright installed) by the surveillance industry.
