Russian billboard selling illegal goods hides itself from the cops

Russian billboard selling illegal goods hides itself from the cops



A cop on the look out would have already seen the problem. In fact, later in the video, cops do notice the issue because the billboard only changes when they're within four or five feet of it.
Then there's the issue of a company scanning everyone's faces. What could go wrong?
"Once such data is in the hands of a cloud service provider, there's always the possibility that it can be subpoenaed away by a (very data-hungry) government," Lisa Vaas wrote at Naked Security. 
Would advertising firms suddenly became much bigger targets for hackers because they'd have even more information about everyone who dared walk around in cities?
If nothing else, we can soon look forward to a future where we all wear camouflage for our walk to the corner store.
