Then turn your own phone on and continuously upload your video and data to a lockbox.

If you want to be continuously surveilled, you have the technology to do it to yourself for a fairly cheap price nowadays (see: arrest recording apps). It also has the advantage that it is WAY more likely to exonerate you than some random CCTV that just so happens to be able to provide an alibi.

Don't force ME into that situation via government fiat, thanks.
