This is nothing new. The right to request CCTV footage of you has been about in the UK for 20 years. It's covered by the Data Protection Act 1998. I remember some music video done this requested footage like 10 years ago https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3LWpzHSOndk

Stop trying to VC-fund everything single idea that pops into your head.

Even if had suggested VC funding (I didn't), were an investor (I'm not), lived in the UK (I don't), and had experience with video automation (I don't), why would you care? The background info was helpful enough.
