    I assume he doesn’t actually have access to the business cameras because he’s just an employee of a much larger organization.

    Example: I work for a large organization and I do not have access to any cameras anywhere. I wouldn’t even know how to request it!

    Also, the recordings need to last a lot longer than 48h. A month makes more sense.

      How long recordings are stored is a point of discussion - i say for everything involving the police, when taking their overblown budgets into account, 48-72 hours are plenty.

      And if this fuckwit does not have access, that’s how it should be, and that’s the same reason why he shouldn’t have any private recordings too (if we ignore that Meta is using that data for whatever they want)

        That’s way too short. Because if the point is to protect yourself from accusations, you need to be able to go back in time to whatever the company/courts would say is a reasonable amount of time (and match that policy).

        1. A week after the event someone reports something.
        2. Corporate investigates and doesn’t tell the employee for a week or two. Maybe even longer.

          If the police walks in to secure evidence, i am sure that you can implement a mechanism to freeze the current state of the storage. If it is public knowledge that businesses are not allowed by law to store surveillance data longer than a week, this will also be reflected in peoples behavior.
