Exigent circumstances is a real thing and goes back a long time. If a cop sees someone being murdered through a window, we obviously don't want them booking a call with the DA and local judge before helping.

That being said, that power is obviously easily misused without checks and limits.

If a cop sees someone being murdered through a window, they don't need the Nest camera footage of it.
