    I mean… their job supposedly is to protect and serve the citiens so yeah… I’d expect them to use their tools to do their job.

      It’s your software/hardware and you know how to operate it. Would take you a fraction of the time as well.

      Maybe public cameras sure, but private that’s not their tool by any stretch of the imagination.

      And most public cameras don’t record for privacy reasons.

        In what world do random citizens own and operate the security cameras of, well, anything? As opposed to the people that work there, or I dont know the police? Whose job is allegedly to solve crimes?

        What? It was a campus security camera, not their hardware
