Maybe close cooperation with the deeply corrupt and unjust police makes you complicit in the outcomes.

Except in this particular case there appears to be a near-zero risk of anyone being "complicit" in bad police outcomes, given that it's opt-in, can only be used on a case-by-case basis, and it's the citizen who searches their own cam footage, voluntarily, and only in response to a specific police request about a specific case.

So, while at first glance at a headline, this might seem problematic, after reading the details, I'd probably be willing to participate. This can't really be abused to create any George Floyd-type situations.

Maybe that is what they believe, but I'm specifically asking samschooler since they are in a unique position to comment on it.
Maybe. And maybe homeownership is crossing the Rubicon in that respect.
