Digital license plates sold by Reviver, already legal to buy in some states and drive with nationwide, can be hacked by their owners to evade traffic regulations or even law enforcement surveillance.

Who the fuck is buying a digital license plate for $499 and a $8/mo subscription? Why does it need a subscription? Wtf?
Maybe to game the system by hacking it

Would be nice if fewer people drove like sociopaths.
Someone who regularly skips tolls and runs red lights and knows this vulnerability exists?
Reading the article the subscription can be bypassed with the jailbreak. A red light camera ticket is $100 here, so 5 of those and the plate has paid for itself.
Of course, you could also not drive like a shithead, but where there’s a will there’s a way and all
$100 holy shit that’s so cheap! red light cameras here (melbourne, aus) are $495 (~$315USD)
our speeding fines go up to $2272 (45km/h+ over - ~28mph)
don’t run red lights and speed is generally the accepted strategy
