Recording public incidents can preserve valuable evidence and help hold officials accountable. Publishing someone’s distress for mass consumption is a separate decision, with consequences that may outlast the event itself. Original footage can help establish a sequence; edited fragments can obscure it. The responsible response is neither automatic silence nor instant judgment, but care: preserve recordings, distinguish facts from speculation, and remember that the person on screen must continue living after everyone else has finished watching them.
