Couldn't you send a letter to the address with a verification mechanism, instead of defaulting to inquiring mass-surveillance databases? And why are school districts investigating potential felonies to begin with, shouldn't that be handled by law enforcement?
The concept of collecting personal data, for the slim chance of becoming relevant in the future, should not be acceptable to anyone. If license plates are not directly relevant to an investigation, the officer, camera, or whatever else, shouldn't be logging it.
It shouldn’t be a crime to send my child to a better school system than I can afford to live in.
I live in a poor area of Alabama, I’d give almost anything to be able to pack my shit and get my children to a better school district.
