The debate over public safety, artificial intelligence, license plate readers and personal privacy is intensifying across America.

In this episode of The Finest Unfiltered, we sit down with Robert A. Berman, Chairman & CEO of Rekor Systems (NASDAQ: REKR), to discuss whether communities really have to choose between effective public-safety technology and protecting the privacy of ordinary citizens.

Rekor believes there is another way.

As Automated License Plate Recognition (ALPR) and vehicle-recognition systems face increased scrutiny over surveillance, data retention, information sharing and government access, Rekor has proposed a privacy-focused architecture designed to preserve legitimate law-enforcement uses while reducing unnecessary collection and exposure of information involving everyday drivers.

We discuss:

• How Rekor's technology differs from other ALPR systems
• Why license plate readers have become so controversial
• How ALPR can help law enforcement solve crimes and locate wanted or stolen vehicles
• Data retention and who should have access to vehicle information
• Protecting information involving drivers who aren't connected to criminal activity
• Accountability, auditing and evidentiary integrity
• The growing role of AI in policing and roadway intelligence
• Whether public safety and privacy can actually coexist

With the national debate increasingly framed as security vs. surveillance, Robert Berman explains why Rekor believes technology can provide law enforcement with valuable intelligence without forcing Americans to surrender reasonable expectations of privacy.
