Using Galaxy S9s as body cameras might bring some benefits, like automatic uploads and real-time livestreams. But it’s an odd thing to tout at the moment, given all of the backlash about body cameras being worn but not turned on and growing concern about police-use of facial recognition — though Samsung did not say these devices will use facial recognition software.

Studies have found that police-worn body cameras don’t necessarily solve issues like excessive use of force, and they can be susceptible to hacking. Still, body cameras have become more common, and there’s a chance we’ll see more, small law enforcement teams looking for creative ways to equip their officers.

The measure has been introduced to the state Senate.

If the bill passes the Senate and is signed into law, it could discourage “ICEing” campaigns where nogoodniks intentionally park gas cars (usually trucks and SUVs) at chargers to make life miserable for EV drivers. In the long run, it could also minimize crowding at stations as EVs become more popular, encouraging drivers to leave as soon as they’ve topped up rather than hogging a spot during a shopping trip.
