and it’s much worse than that obviously, so police are being watched now – and the videos will get out. to the extent that people can hang onto their cameras … but where before there might have been 5 cameras, there are probably now 50 + access to a distribution platform. so…interesting to see how this plays out.

Nice to see it finally gets out. I don’t think people ever really believed me when I’d tell my stories of this kind of thing happening in QC FTAA. Now they might :)
