Radical transparency, David Brin style. Our runaway technology has made the panopticon inevitable. The best we can manage is to make sure we watch them as much as they watch us. That's what wikileaks was trying to do, on a small scale. (Anyone up for an open-source, freely-accessible ANPR network?)

While this is a cool idea, it wouldn't balance because the Government knows which license plate is kept by which person, and your putative ANPR network doesn't.
