- briandear 10y agoIt would be cool to live stream every courtroom in the US continually. Then we can visit and watch any court we wanted and actually make some meaningful comparisons that aren't based on hersay.
- ptaipale 10y agoI don't really know for sure, of course, but I'd guess that almost all of these live streams would be incredibly boring. A few then would be interesting. But wouldn't it require changes to laws in many places? I understand that currently you can't even take photographs in courtroom in many jurisdictions?
