    Yeah, purge after 3min, no sharing, only flag hits for BOLOs, require accuracy verification by human before reacting, no searchable database creation.

    3min is long enough for processing, don’t need to store any non-bolo-hit data beyond that.

      It’s not worth the risk that the camera’s owner – an unregulated corporation – will backdoor their way in to collect and sell data they’re not supposed to have.

      These cameras should not exist at all.
