I have been thinking of this and often cautious on camera's and now seeing this proved that there are likely chances of others falling into hurt or gotten their coins stolen through this.
These could easily be the case as in today, most of the upgrades on mobile devices have always focused on processing speed and the camera magnifying power where anyone could be at several kilometers away and zoom in on your activities. That’s the risk you face when doing some privacy concerned activities in public.
secondly, checking your paper should not mean anything to them if they are not suspecting you as a target for any criminal activities, so if they see your seeds, that does not mean they should take a photograph of it,
It wasn't the intention of the Police men to record that section is just that they had a body camera recording everything. I think this is done to avoid any case of eith parties framing the other.
The car owner is the one to blamed here. No one is expected to be moving around with their seed phrase on paper around. Imagine he was caught by some theft and searching his car they found something of such they can just move the funds.
It clearly wasn’t intentional as regular procedures require they put on a body cam and have it on at all times.From the footage, we could hear the cop inquiring on what it was, if it was some access point to their siren data base or something and the suspect proceeds to clear things up. Uploading this piece of footage on the net is what i can’t say but, it’s great they did, for awareness.
If these were criminals and they stumble on you this way, them Bitcoins are as good as gone.
