    How do we mess with the data? Swap out magnetic bumper stickers daily? Obscure license plates? Frequent DIY vinyl wrapping to change color?

      Crowdsourcing tracking of government vehicles might prompt a more reasonable reaction from politicians.

        Minneapolis is an excellent example. ICE did NOT like being tracked, even when they (illegally) swapped license plates.
