If you are ever doing anything political for which there might be retaliation, put yourself under constant surveillance... these days this can be done for a few bucks maybe $50/month and multiple camera all around you can watch your every move and send everything to the cloud. Make it much more difficult to get you without leaving behind plenty of evidence.

If anyone else knows it's there or to even look for it. Never underestimate your local law enforcement's ability to go 'yup, it's a suicide' right off the bat and not look any further. Because any cloud based accounts are apt to be secured with strong encryption and passwords your friends may not be able to gain access to your accounts.
I imagine anybody who would go through the trouble to stream everything to the cloud would also bother to setup a dead man's switch.
If I told a friend to please share this .onion URL and AES key with the police should anything happen to me because I think I might be assassinated by the Bush campaign, I'm pretty sure said friend would have me committed.
Don't do that. Upload to an S3 bucket or GDrive with revisioning turned on,. Perhaps make a job via Lamda to copy that data somewhere else as well that's not deletable. Share the access of that with any other technical person you know and trust. That's about it. If you hit the can, they can get the info or you can use an online service to automate life checks, etc.

Like get Twilio to call you and if you don't respond, send out the read-only s3 bcuket credentials after a couple of days... with all video recordings, etc.
