Title: Now You Get Robbed in Traffic in San Francisco
Post by: Ben on February 07, 2021, 08:27:42 PM

Now they smash and grab while you're sitting in your car in traffic in San Francisco.

Interesting from the situational awareness perspective. Even if you're in a state where you could do something about this, you're in your car with seatbelts on. This happened pretty quickly.

I just learned the other day that there is a registry service for cameras that you can set it up so that any photos you take with your camera has a unique identifier and so that if any photos taken with a stolen camera show up online the service will know where the photo was taken.

I don't remember the name of this service but hopefully the victims do.

If they're professional photographers they probably are registered.
