My question to you is: how are you assessing the costs? Do you know how many crimes have been stopped as a result of these cams? Do you know the extent to which our privacy is being lost and our data is being used against us or others?

I know the extent of reported abuses, and I do my best to extrapolate. It's not perfect, but such is life. To be clear, even if we all agreed on the data, I still would not expect everyone to take the same position. There are subjective differences in values.
