    What about axon? They are taking contracts over now… Sucks cause this company also helps with body cameras and those are good.

      Axon is formally known as TASER. They’re part of the reason behind the militarization of our police

      Apparently Axon doesn’t have the same national network. So a cop in Texas can’t track his ex or a woman going for an abortion in Oklahoma.

      I still don’t like having ALPR type cameras all over town, though.

        Its better to have a judge be able to see the footage and make a judgement than it is for there to be no record of the cop violence at all.

          Yes I could see the logic in that but here’s how it used to « see, mister Judge, how the culprit wasn’t responsive to my threatening and escalating demands, I had to use force to subdue the culprit who was increasingly violent as I made violent escalating demands »
