I think I understand that you want to make it harder for people to report a video to the police, because you believe these people will call in false reports on racial minorities. There will be some people who will not be able to figure out how to get a video of a crime to police because of that change. That is unethical.

It has to be as easy as we can possibly make it, otherwise it's immoral? That other comment is right, by that logic we should share all information with police always.
- starttoaster 3y agoI don’t think the “logic” you’re pointing out really tracks, to be honest. We should share information with police when we have reasonable belief that a crime is being committed.
- Dylan16807 3y agoBut if you make it too easy to share information, less and less of the shared information will be tied to a reasonable belief of a crime. If it has to be as easy as possible, the oversharing explodes.
- scarby2 3y agoIf you overshare with the police and none of it is evidence of an actual crime they are going to stop looking. They simply don't have time to watch thousands of videos sent in by paranoid old folks.
- Dylan16807 3y agoThey'll stop looking at all of it, but if you give police access to giant databases of information they will search through it to get info they shouldn't have.
