Dashcams and security footage definitely don’t have copyright protection. Are you seriously thinking that the construction worker who set up the camera would then have copyright over everything it records?

Yes the security guard’s footage would have copyright protection. However, a security guard is also typically paid and under contract. It’s a commissioned work.
Same as when hiring a software engineer.
Really? Regardless of the debate on what should and shouldn't be copyrighted, in the current system there is no way to set up a continuous camera with intention to create something and not be afforded the same rights as if I took a snapshot?
