CHICAGO — In neighborhoods across Chicago, residents can no
longer listen to police scanners to find real-time information
about public emergencies and crime. That is because the city of
Chicago is now encrypting the radio transmissions. The plan is
for transmissions across all police districts to be encrypted
by the end of the year.
The move affects not only residents who depend on the information,
but media outlets such as WGN-TV, which uses the transmissions to
gather information for broadcast.
. . .
Well THAT solves the crime problem !!!
Next I guess they can forbid local media to even
discuss any crimes.
If you don't hear about it then it DIDN'T HAPPEN,
right ???
It should be illegal to hide public-service agency
broadcasts except in very special circumstances.
We're paying for them, so ......
