The cameras should be required to be on in order for the officer to do anything "in the line of duty". Furthermore, they should broadcast a wifi feed of what they're seeing in real time so that anyone can have a "listener" running nearby to capture it. You could have a listener in your car, at your apartment, or running on your iPhone. There should be a listener in the police car that instantly uploads the feed to a server managed by an agency that is totally independent from the police department.
Camera always on. Everyone gets an immediate copy.

- crusso 14y agoHa, good point. Okay, well amend my brainstorming to just being a live feed that goes to an independent agency that can make the video available at a later date.
- fffggg 14y agoYes, all that's needed is for it to become available to subpoena and other lawful process.

- jjcm 14y agoDisagree on the immediate copy. Perhaps a few hours delay. A live feed would be too valuable for evading police.
