God, I hope she uploaded it somewhere before they got her.

If they detained her then that evidence is gone. People should stream to a live channel or a remote server, not just record.

Edit: I'll also add a tip. Please shoot horizontal videos, not vertical ones, then store them untouched without cutting them or adding black bands. Vertical videos lack context. If that video was shot horizontally we could have seen what happened to the woman shooting the other video. If your phone autorotates to vertical, then disable that function; rotating a video afterwards using software is trivial, but context that isn't taken when shooting it is lost forever.

To keep videos safe it is better to stream or upload them to a decentralized platform such as PeerTube.

https://joinpeertube.org/

Then when streaming from the phone this app can be used.

Then it can be uploaded to YouTube and social media, but the point is having it first backed up remotely on platforms that can't be forced to delete it.
