Is there an open source solution that lets you record from your phone to an offsite location? Preferably something self hosted, but not crucial I guess.

Just thinking about scenarios where people in the US are stopped by cops and need to record their interactions, but want to make sure that the local info isn't destroyed. I've tried the Mobile Justice app for my state but it's not very reliable and I have no insight into the data after it's left my device.

Not the best answer because it's not open source, but both Google Photos and Apple iCloud support automatic cloud backups of photos and videos over data. That media can also be accessed separately from a browser or another device after logging in.

Those are the only immediate solutions for the problem you describe that I can think of off the top of my head, I'm afraid, but hopefully other options are out there, too.
