[Steve Wyshywaniuk]

I believe a number of folks on this list are interested/participating in
the development of the various secure camera projects. This article is
something to consider as we continue to move forward.

I expect this will become a safety risk for journalists soon:

We should be able to use dark frame noise subtraction to mitigate this risk
for users of the storymaker app definitely a feature we should consider for
a future version imho.
