Republican Senator Ron Johnson sympathizes with security concerns but believes the committee went too far. The goal of releasing more of the footage is to address unanswered questions about January 6, including the presence of undercover agents and issues with the Capitol Police. The release of the tapes could help the public understand the actions of those charged, but may also pose risks for uncharged individuals. Faces of private citizens in the tapes will be blurred, although skilled investigators may still identify suspects. The release will occur gradually. The process of reviewing 40,000 hours of footage will take a long time.
