If the data exists within US jurisdiction, the US government feels (and, in practice, is) entitled to it. Plan accordingly.

This is true in virtually every country with a system of warrants for evidence collection when investigating a crime. The problem here for many people is the underlying police violence that in part instigated these crimes against the police.
Unfortunately, this order will prevent the police from using any video evidence of crimes perpetrated by a police officer found in the evidence siezed.
It wouldn't happen either way as that requires somebody to prosecute the police.
