ANNAPOLIS, Maryland — Motorists in Maryland may be aware of the cameras that enforce speed and red-light violations, but the state’s tracking practices include other layers to assist in law enforcement efforts, and for traffic and planning purposes.
Through the different practices, Maryland collects both anonymous and identifiable information — depending on the method — about driving patterns, raising concerns for privacy advocates.
“I don’t think it’s really an issue of whether you have privacy in a particular moment in time,” said Dave Maass, senior investigative researcher at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, a non-profit that defends civil liberties in the digital age. “But rather whether the government — and companies — should be tracking you over time and space, and then storing and selling that information.”
The Maryland Coordination and Analysis Center assists “federal, state, local and private-sector partners in the collection, analysis and dissemination of criminal and homeland security within Maryland,” according to its mission statement.

I don't give a crap. Track me. Listen to my phone conversations. Don't care...
If you aren’t doing anything wrong . . .
12:16 and 12:32....wait until you do something they don’t like. Has nothing to do with right or wrong. Get your head out of the sand.
Just how the Jewish people thought when the Nazi party came to power...worked out well didn't it?
Privacy isnt about doing something wrong or not. Its about privacy. 12:16 & 12:32 great, you don't care. Until you do, then its to late.
California's DMV sell peoples data for a whopping profit. I would expect to hear that many states are doing that. I am not for it.

Sadly, so many Americans just roll over and don't mind if the government says they need to stick a camera right up their ace.
I don't care if you don't care about your right to be really stupid, but PLEASE don't try to surrender MY rights in your rush to bend over for the cameras.
