Since when is a number plate private info?

FFS, people need to get over themselves.

The UK DPA is quite contextual, in some circumstances a number plate could be aggregated with additional information and become personal information under the act.

I'm not sure if that's the case in this example; just pointing out that it's not always clear cut!

Of course there's a difference between the legal responsibility of the company and the developers intentions, when writing a shoddy web application!

(I.e whilst they might not be breaking the law, I doubt they meant it to be easy to grab all the photos)

OWASP top 10 anyone?

Parking ticket firm 'exposed private info' - ICO making enquiries ? The Register

apparently despite 'breaking the law' the companies exposing the photos aren't willing to stop persecuting the poor parking extortion firm - sometimes there is justice!
