WITNESS

WITNESS is a theoretical system that logs number plates in an encrypted database. It was an idea invented by Matt for a fictional setting but could be a real-world thing too.

Possible uses

  • Enhance your alibi with evidence of where your car was
  • AI-based BOLO reporting
  • Strong evidence for criminal prosecution
  • Tracking stolen vehicles
  • Disputing speeding tickets

Witness is real

It turns out it was real and the data was not locked down as I described.
