WTF? Do I have to allow shit in my car and phone to start tracking me to provide evidence in my favor when some ai decides it has "tracked" me? The only reason this lady got out of it without getting a lawyer and going to court is she allowed all the bullshit in her phone and car that I block. And if she didn't have it, what would have happened in court?
that's exactly what I got out of this whole situation.
guilty until proven innocent.
That's how they're running it, and there are a whole lot of people who would prefer it to run that way in the future.
What should be happening is: when falsely accused and exonerated in court, you get a judgement against the LEA for treble damages for your costs to rebut their false claims.
False claims are going to happen, but if they're costing the police thousands of dollars per instance, that should slow them down. I'm more than happy to pay increased taxes to put that deterrent on the agencies.
