Body cams on cops will inevitably have facial recognition built into them. It will be just like the automatic license plate readers that are extent today.

The future is approaching fast.

Yeah. Broadcast the live feeds so everyone can see what’s going on.

Yup. The data-mining potential is HUGE. Cop approaches anyone, their criminal record is immediately presented (audio or visual). Regardless of record, location of _everyone_ (face, license plate, or other identifying features - even if just shirt color) seen is documented. Going even further: software exists to evaluate & predict behavior as extracted from live video.

Shades of “Good afternoon, Mr. Yakamoto” (_Minority_Report_).
