Does this mean you cannot record a police officer during a traffic stop but he can record you?

  It's probably going to depend on the Supreme Court now, since other circuit courts have issued opposing decisions. Here's one from the last time I remember it being discussed on HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13672482 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13672482 IANAL, but one interesting consequence of this ruling might be that it will embolden police since they can point to it as evidence that the right to film police is not clearly established and, even if the Supreme Court rules it's unconstitutional for police to prevent filming, the officers are still deserving of qualified immunity when preventing that constitutional right.
