This tool was built by people who oppose mass surveillance, so it practices what it preaches:
• No accounts, no logins, no cookies, no analytics, no tracking pixels.
• No database — there is nowhere for your data to be stored. We never save, log, or sell anything you type.
• The camera matching runs 100% in your browser.
• To draw your route, the two locations you enter are sent to open public mapping services (OpenStreetMap's geocoder and an open routing engine) — exactly like any map app — and are not retained by us.
• The whole thing is plain, inspectable code. Open your browser's view-source and check for yourself.
Your commute is nobody's business but yours. That's the entire point.
This tool pulls publicly-mapped automated license plate reader (ALPR) locations from OpenStreetMap — the same open dataset the DeFlock project uses. It draws your driving route and counts every plate reader within roughly 60 meters of it.
It's an estimate: a camera near your route may face a different direction, and not every camera in the real world is mapped yet. "Owner not disclosed" means no one has tagged who operates that camera — it could be police, a county, or a private business. The point isn't the exact number — it's that public and corporate cameras feed the same searchable network.
