The cops object when their tools on turned on them

The highlight for me is this:
The Las Vegas Police Protective Association, with the backing of the department, said they are concerned such technology compromises the officers’ privacy.
It’s worth noting they’re only doing this for workers, not for attendees. The police would presumably by fine with it if it were just attendees and not workers, because it wouldn’t include them.
The old adage ‘why do you care if you’ve got nothing to hide?’ comes to mind
Dear cops: Oh now we worry about unchecked power and lack of oversight in the deployment of surveillance technology? Please. May as well join the surveillance dystopia with the rest of us, you helped usher it in. Tell me again about your robot dogs and your Stingray devices why don’t you.
And now I’ll never go to a game again. Fuck’em.
