  • We have a couple of these cameras in The Netherlands.

    We found it quite intrusive to look into people’s cars. Therefore the computer will flag photos, of possible offenses, and a person verifies them.

    Unfortunately the movable camera has a huge lens and it’s reported to a waze-like app before they are even finished setting it up.

    Also there is a security benefit. Phones are protected quite well, so it is safer to keep a user signed on the device and maybe only a PIN or biometrics in front of the app to open it. The apps run in an isolated space, making it even safer.

    Lastly there can be a performance benefit. Websites are written in HTML, CSS and JavaScript which is compiled on demand, while apps can be written in languages which are pre-compiled.

  • This may be true for the Reddit app, but it’s definitely not true for most other apps. Tracking and selling data does not get easier with apps.
