I’ve under taken the arduous trip and located the answer. To save you the trouble, I’ve drawn a map.



It’s hard to argue that a datacenter has more environmental impact than a chemical plant, but I look forward to reading the comments that try.
This looks like this is part of the UK’s Digital Sovereignty plans, so they have their companies data on their land and legal jurisdiction

Instructions unclear, but appears to work fine



On one hand you can use an OS that respects your privacy, doesn’t have telemetry, doesn’t push advertisements as system messages and doesn’t default your storage to the cloud and then charge you a subscription to access your files… on the other hand you can’t make your mouse blue.
It’s a tough decision, but everyone has to make that one on their own.

That’s the question that the entire world waits to have answered.
Congress is empowered by the constitution with tools to prevent the exact scenario of an out of control executive. The people currently leading congress seem to be spineless or part of the corruption, it’s hard to tell the difference.
That being said, Trump is on the way out (the opinions troll farm bots not withstanding) and there are already former supporters who are starting to break off or to create distance between themselves and Trump. His public sentiment polling is deeply negative and his health is increasingly becoming harder to ignore.
There are people in congress who could potentially be serving terms (pending reelection) after Trump is gone and those people are starting to weigh drawing Trump’s wrath vs having the stain of Trump follow them onwards in their career. You’ll notice that there are not a lot of quotes about current events from Republican Senators or House Reps that are up for re-election in the mid-terms, everyone knows how deeply unpopular Trump is outside of his alt-right base (which, without moderates, cannot win elections) and they also know that he could literally do anything tomorrow (like try to invade Greenland) which would put them in a position of openly supporting obviously illegal actions* which isn’t a good look to moderates from the party claiming to be the party of law and order.
*Greenland is owned by Denmark because of a Treaty with the US, in which the US received the US Virgin Islands. A treaty in the US is ratified by congress and becomes federal law. Everyone that isn’t intentionally playing dumb, knows this. Trump’s orders to draw up a plan to invade Greenland have been met with pushback from the military because it is so clearly against federal law.


Props to that woman for not giving into the fear and standing her ground.
We’re going to need a lot of people like her
That’s the power of intentional misinformation

You can make it effectively invisible if you print the noise in ink only visible to UV cameras and even if you use black, the individual features are smaller than a fingernail so it would be hard to see.
The law makes it illegal to put anything on the plate at all, here’s an example from FL:
A person may not alter the original appearance of a vehicle registration certificate, license plate, temporary license plate, mobile home sticker, or validation sticker issued for and assigned to a motor vehicle or mobile home, whether by mutilation, alteration, defacement, or change of color or in any other manner. A person may not apply or attach a substance, reflective matter, illuminated device, spray, coating, covering, or other material onto or around any license plate which interferes with the legibility, angular visibility, or detectability of any feature or detail on the license plate or interferes with the ability to record any feature or detail on the license plate. A person who knowingly violates this section commits a misdemeanor of the second degree,
It would be hard to disrupt the OCR from outside of the plate area.
You could break the segmentation, the process where it draws a box around your plate and sends the image inside of the box to be OCRd by making every other surface of your vehicle detect as a license plate using the same invisible marks. I imagine you could also print a bumper sticker with noise to look maximally like a license plate and put it near your real plate to achieve the same outcome.
If you wanted more active measures you could use high lumen UV floodlights next to your plate, it would overload the sensors so they couldn’t get an image at all. The light would be invisible to human eyes but blinding to anyone using a UV sensitive device. I believe this is fine in any state as most states only restrict your ability to install blue lights to avoid confusion with emergency services.
He should take it all the way to trial so all of the facts are public and on the record
