I admit to being conflicted about this service. It end runs the privacy laws regarding address info held by the DMV and then trumps it by providing address not held by the DMV.

On the other hand, the present DMV restrictions seem to create an uneven playing field.

BTW. The local police have these scanners on all the cruisers. Nothing was mentioned about geolocation info being part of the package.

In my opinion, one has a Natural Right to move about freely without being surveilled. That probably seems like a very quaint idea in this world, but that doesn't make it wrong.
