If some of the largest companies already employ tech with PI licenses, I suspect they lobbied for the law to force the little guy out.
In Arizona you must have 3 years of investigative experience to become an agency and must have a sponsor to become a PI.
So that leaves ex-police officers, insurance investigators, or those who have been sponsored by a PI.
A work around in Arizona would be to hire someone who qualifies to become a PI agency who could then sponsor all the techies in obtaining a PI license.
Or so that is how I think it works.

Not sure if this kind of law will find its way to AZ, but its a very
interesting development. The only reason why I can imagine they would
put this into effect is for the government to have more control over
the services marketplace.
