The whole thing is rife with security, transparency, and privacy problems. Eg:

LAPD has said it does not plan on publicly releasing the recordings

While they don't plan on it, I would assume the recordings will be released via FOIA requests. And that means countless lawsuits to have the FOIA requests actually followed.

Do you expect the police to post unedited streams of every camera on a searchable database? What do you expect?

They plan that, but I can imagine plenty of activists and groups pestering and bashing the police until they do. Of course, it'll only happen with high profile cases and not everyday incidents. Shame...
