The Virtual Vandal: A Cathartic Release for ALPR Fatigue? In Grand Theft Auto V, destroying Flock cameras has become a popular pastime.
Artist Morry Kolman's mod, Grand Theft Automated License Plate Reader (GTPLR), has installed 235 Flock cameras across the fictional city of Los Santos, allowing players to smash and shoot them down for $600 per unit.
This virtual vandalism taps into growing public sentiment against automated license plate readers (ALPRs) and their alleged misuse by law enforcement.
