Ohio Puts Police Bodycam Footage Behind a Paywall

I strongly urge the people to wear their own bodycam for proof. You can get them on Amazon, etc. If you wear one, make sure that both your empty hands and fingers are clearly visible to it when in a bind. No one should sanely be able to assert that you were reaching for anything.

I wonder if LLMs will get smart enough to do the majority of the redaction, or at least smart enough to reduce the amount of footage a reviewer needs to process to redact. If so, the cost for footage release should go down towards zero over time. Maybe we'll get to the point where footage is just released automatically rather then requiring a request.

I wonder if you get a refund if the important areas are redacted or sections are missing.
