Edit.

I stand corrected. This cannot be used by police at all. A police officer would have to be present at the time of the video and not reliant upon that video for observation of the criminal act. If the officer requires use of the video then that video would require a warrant prior to its viewing by law enforcement.

It doesnt require a warrant if you willingly give it to them....

It does require a warrant to use the video as grounds to enter their neighbor's home, if the previous Supreme Court ruling holds up.

More likely, they'd figure out some kind of parallel construction.

parallel construction should be relabeled as perjury or something similar
