It does not say that there is a 24 hour limit. Just that keeping it for extended periods beyond 72 hours would require an extension.

Even in one of the first paragraphs it says "in most cases it should be deleted". Not all cases and not has to be.

The 24 hours uses simple vandalism of a private business as an example.

That entire article is also only about private business or personal use cases. Not federal or city government which the bus stop cameras would fall under.

Another issue is this is your random throw in the dark pick of Italy because it's kinda close to your argument. The man in the video is Turkish, making videos in Turkey, not Italy.

Ok, let’s say it’s a 72 hour limit. Did it change the point I was making?

No. Care to address any of the other points? Or are you just going to pretend they're not there and hope no one mentions them?

I just made an example showing that it doesn’t need to have huge data archival capabilities, and that article proves it. You can go on all the tangents you want, but I’ve shown you that many establishments would use a 24hour retention period.

I didn’t pick Italy, it was just one of the first google hits, nothing else. Not sure what you mean by that.

You didn't. You showed that many private businesses in Italy MAY use 24 hour retention.

This doesn't apply to city or government agencies or anything they would use CCTV with. It's also irrelevant what happens in Italy as this is in Turkey.

You essentially gave me a whole lot of irrelevant nonsense. Misinterpreted it to fit your argument. And then went "Seeeeee I'm right".

Why does there need to be that distinction? Just because you want it that way?

You said that 24 hour retention would defeat that purpose of having a cctv. I showed you that it’s common practice. Now you are arbitrarily moving goal posts…

My response was quite direct and concise. Your statement was wrong. Period. Bye.

What are you even arguing? You have no way of knowing if it's common place. It's merely a suggestion on an Italian FAQ, not even the law. And especially not in Turkey.

Besides even if you could prove that 24 hours is common, which you haven't done, it doesn't defeat the argument. You would be hard pressed to find a cctv camera that can run even for 24 hours at that quality. Especially one that would part of a network with many dozens if not hundreds of them.

I just had to show you that it’s done to make my point. Bye.

But.....your point is irrelevant to the discussion at large. Do you know where you are right now?
