Though, I recently found out Motorola has license plate reading cameras and supposedly works with ICE. Which is gd gutting to hear.

Edit: From a reply below, this may be a different company? Looking into it now.

Edit: Looks like the cellphone company, Motorola Mobility LLC, is currently wholly owned by the, now Chinese company, Lenovo. So, certainly appears to be different organizations. Glass someone caught me on that.

Wrong Motorola. There are two different companies.

Oh shit. Fr? I'm totally uninformed. I'll look this up but any quick pointers to help?

Motorola Solutions and Motorola Mobility are two separate companies created from the split of the original Motorola, Inc. in January 2011

Apparently, it may be a different company. Checking on that.
