A large RCT found cameras changed little.
C · 13/24
1 · The idealist case (in its proponents' own framing)
Cameras boost accountability and behavior.
2 · The realist counter-case
Critics cite cost and null effects.
3 · Predicted vs. measured — with caveats
Yokum et al. (2019, PNAS) DC RCT found no significant effect on use-of-force or complaints.
4 · Liberty check
Transparency vs. surveillance and cost.
5 · The real tradeoff
A humbling null result.
