The Los Angeles Police Department has made numerous requests to owners of Amazon’s Ring surveillance cameras for footage capturing Black Lives Matter protests in summer 2020, according to documents published by the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) on Tuesday.
Police surveilled last summer’s unrest in numerous ways, including flying a Predator drone. But this is the first time that police have been caught trying to use Ring footage to surveil those protests.
