WIRED: When Private Security Cameras Are Police Surveillance Tools.

   there is a different program in California to deter property crime:
   every business and home keeps a local store of recent video - there is
   no feed to the police.

   if a crime occurs, the residents themselves collect relevant video
   subsets for police to use, but never do the cops get a raw video feed.

   this system is also robust against network failure - an additional
   benefit!

   decentralized solutions such as these are often more robust, and more
   privacy responsible. they just lack the profit potential of centralized
   systems that exploit users for additional profit...  fight for
   decentralized technology in your municipality!

   best regards,
