You do understand the amount of data we are talking about I assume?

Maybe a half a gig an hour for a low resolution picture times 1.1
million cops. 2 petabytes of data by lunch time on the first day. How
long do we keep this data?

You do start getting the "Staci" problem. The East Germans collected
far more data than they could actually look at.

I do understand that when **** happens, it is great to have the video
but Wilson had 18 years on the force with nothing spectacular ever
happening to him. That is a lot of boring video.

Not sure how long to keep it, but my idea would be nobody gets to see it
until a judge orders it, and then only in a case where the police or
suspect action is in question, *not for* investigative or to produce a
warrant, collect intel, etc...
