automated use of power that can be (publicly) monitored and held accountable
is likely OK overall, but there is a real risk of either making it
untraceable/secret, or scaling it up so that when the use becomes abuse
there is no chance of responding democratically. These are situations we
ought to work to reduce the probability of.

Anders it is something I am thinking about with some urgency.  Our upcoming
election is asking us to choose between two power abusers, oy.  I fear the
whole notion of power abuse will filter down through the various levels of
government.
 
I can imagine a system where the onboard cameras receive a radio signal, so
that viewers in the public can verify the video is being created in realtime
with nothing deleted and nothing inserted.  We can have independent third
party cameras verifying position and time of bangs, that sort of thing.  It
could be that not many enforcement agencies have the money for this kind of
equipment.
