A story about an Ohio police officer who showed restraint by not shooting a suspect is identified as part of a public relations campaign for body cameras. The segment argues that Taser International is aggressively pushing expensive cloud-based camera systems to law enforcement. The hosts express skepticism that body cameras provide a full or objective account of police interactions.

President Obama proposed $263 million in federal funding to purchase 50,000 police body cameras and provide law enforcement training to build community trust. Taser International Inc., trading under the ticker TASR, is a primary manufacturer of these systems, though critics argue that constant surveillance could lead to the creation of "bionic robocops" controlled by command centers.
