I think this is an outstanding idea. But if it's to be credible, the recordings need to be unmodifiable/undeleteable by the user, and immediately available to law enforcement.

Heads I win, tails you lose is not credible. It's just riot bait.

That would be a 5th Amendment violation, and possibly a privacy matter.

That's probably true, from a legal perspective.

As a practical matter, though, being able to pick and choose only the most inflammatory and out-of-context audio/video pretty much ruins this as a real source of truth.
