'Siri I'm getting pulled over': New shortcut can automatically record the police
At least in the U.S. the fear with this type of thing is twofold:* It instantly triggers an antagonistic mood for the entire encounter with police.  It should not of course; police should always be under legal scrutiny considering how much power (and weaponry) they have access to...But police get aggravated when the laws are applied to them, so if they see something like this app, they tend to respond negatively and in a hostile manner (by hostile, not necessarily using force, merely that their biases begin to manifest).  So, what might have started out as a mild case could be exacerbated by simply using this shortcut.* Also, reaching for a phone, that police might "mistaken" for a gun, could almost instantly trigger a police officer to draw - and of course worse, set off - their firearm.Don't get me wrong, I love the idea of this shortcut...but i don't think it is enough.  In fact, I think car makers should just sell cameras and recording equipment in their cars for this purpose - as added features!  i think built-in devices - to protect US! - would go a long way.  Of course, what this says about society - that i would even consider offering a feature for a car that monitors our own police - is a saddening state of affairs.
