Do not wear a 'shoot me' sign. Live hidden video, (2 cams, one points front and one points rear placed behind a plastic grommet it can see through - but is not alone, or buttonhole - make sure cam can not be seen and can not be blocked as you move, and blends in to clothing) stream to a friend-monitored cloud(that the friend can view, but not erase in case the friend is also grabbed). This will give you video your cloud keeps, even if you are frisked flat on a wall. Google how to hide a cam with a grommet or other peephole. Facing away you are nota threat. Learn the ways you hidden cam points and stores video. Wide angle is good, but loses resolution in dimmer light. Use best resolution, 4K etc. Make sure your video cloud is pass-worded and you do not carry the PW in ur pocket. Battery life may be shortened, so an added battery pack pluged into the phone will help. You may be able to encrypt?? You can also use a tiny 4K cam instead of a phone because phones can be detected via some police hand scanners and some forces have been caught using stingrays that can detect and divert your video away from your cloud to their cloud. (I am not sure how well stingrays can do this in the USA, in some foreign places the police own this tech in depth - so be wary of risks and be able to silence your emissions of the police forces seem to be manually scanning people with sensing batons - again, this tech is costly and not universal, but it is out there. Only the paranoid.....

If your threat model includes police stingrays, the could also jam all cellphone traffic which makes cloud backups irrelevant.

  That is true. With enough tech, even a WiFi or other radio link could be blocked. A cam with it's own transmitter to a receiver off the cell bands - few would have it? Not sure how to solve this unless you have a hidden flat pack receiver in a hidden pocket with a good sized battery, flat enough to be hard to pat down?

  This wouldnt be possible in the US, the police don't have the authority to override federal legislation. The FCC has historically been extremely agressive and successful in prosecuting use of jamming devices. I think it's more likely that stingrays would be used to inventory who is at a protest etc and put people on a list for individual targeting.

    Jamming devices have already been in use in Minneapolis
