    Police and fire departments will have to seek a warrant to request footage from users or show the company evidence of an ongoing emergency.

    So not actually stopping.

        Sure. They have to.

        It was the “evidence of ongoing emergency” that I really wanted to call attention to. It sound good, selective, responsible even, but if it amounts to an additional box on the form that says “check here if there is an ongoing emergency” then there’s really no more guarantee of privacy than there was before.
