It still will often be expensive, because governments have a lot of personal data about citizens that interact (often involuntarily) with those governments.

Unless you think those citizens should lose their privacy rights the records concerning them need to be redacted before distribution.

If it's recorded on a Flock camera it happened in public where there's zero expectation of privacy. If the police in Texas are being so careless about people's actually private data that it's showing up in Flock camera feeds the public should absolutely be able to see the evidence of that so that something can be done to stop it.
