OHIO PUTS POLICE BODYCAM FOOTAGE BEHIND A PAYWALL
Ohio Puts Police Bodycam Footage Behind a Paywall
Ohio has become the latest state to allow police to charge high fees for access to footage.
What in the fuck is this? There's no way in hell anyone would approve a law like this if not to hide police actions
Link me the GoFundMe for the guillotine and I'll contribute from Europe
Just for the record, axes are less expensive, more portable and generally more efficient.
Perhaps, but a guillotine is a monument, a rallying cry, and a clear and obvious warning.
It’s not meant to be practical ;)
There we go. That's capitalism. We can have justice and transparency as long as someone can make a profit off it
How can this be legal except that it’s a rightwing state and rational governance doesn’t apply.
If there's a limit of $750 for a single request can someone just submit a request for all of the footage from every camera for an entire year
Your request has been denied as it is overly broad. Please narrow your request to one case and re-submit after paying the $750 application fee again.

I'm so happy this headline is in all caps. There's no way I could have truly understood it without that emphasis.
Brave of you to say what others weren’t thinking. Did you click the link, and look at the headline on the Intercept’s news site? Did it look different? Is that my fault too? Should I alter it and change the format of copy that an entire news organization, editors and journalists decided on? Should that be for me to say? Should it be yours? Does it really matter?
