I’d argue the technology takes what was, at one time, a relatively benign and reasonable policy and weaponizes it.

There’s a level of enforcement where a reasonable policy or law becomes unreasonable.

Cameras on every street corner enforcing every infraction, no matter how minor, is an extreme. There’s a threshold before that extreme where the policy combined with the enforcement becomes unreasonable.

I think the combination of policy and enforcement outlined in the article is well over the line.
