So my question is what can we, the hacker community, do to change this? Would pervasive sousveillance help? Thinking deeper: we need to change the culture of LE in the US. What needs to change such that LEOs become part of the wider community, so they are held accountable etc.. Silly idea: a "trip-advisor" or "4-square" for police encounters. Any encounter with a LEO, you upload the location, their badge number, and give them a ranking. Did they show compassion/understanding? 5 stars.

I've considered an app that would, once initiated, aggressively record audio/video/location/movement/etc, no stop button (!), resisting app termination, strong encrypting the content, and (key point) immediately uploading to a deep-storage service like Amazon Glacier. Usage would be free, retrieval of content would require service-support costs and proof of ownership or warrant/subpoena.
