Just put a bag or bucket over it, won't stop the RF gathering stuff, but cheap and quick

Criminals ✋

Privacy enthusiasts ✅

So criminals are doing it the same way as non-criminals?

[-] RabbitBBQ@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

Flock cameras are probably less than 1% of the total surveillance state (that needs to be dismantled)

[-] Wilco@lemmy.zip 30 points 4 hours ago

The people taking down flock cameras are heroes not criminals.

I think its the funny way of saying how its done without condoning it publicly.

Next thing you know we’ll have a criminal president!

And slower. Great for plumbing, not so much a 3" aluminum post with 1/4" walls

But hey, I might be wrong. 30yrs in the trades, but I've never tried cutting down an aluminum post with a pipe cutter

Also if the method varies from person to person, or one person uses a unique method, it's easier to get multiple vandalism charges to stick

Would a straight cut be easier to add a union joint to and thus make the cost of repair slightly lower?

I guess it would depend on priorities

[-] djdarren@piefed.social 2 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

Nah, they wouldn't bother repairing the tube regardless of how it's cut. If they did and the repair broke, hitting someone, they'd have to take the liability. For a company with their funding, a length of ally tube and the cost to dig it into the ground is fuck all.

edit to add: but multiplied by hundreds of them being cut down, it's not not fuck all. and it's funny.

And all the onlookers suddenly become Skyrim guards... must have been the wind

[-] Brkdncr@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

I can’t take this person seriously. So thirsty for attention.

[-] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 hours ago

I thought flock wasn't taking down the cameras?

[-] CubitOom@infosec.pub 8 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

Actually, it would be extremely lucrative if flock was the people cutting down the cameras, wiping them, and selling them back to the user/municipality at the replacement cost stated in the contract, and using Antifa as a cover.

He was the punkest motherfucker I ever did see

Aw, hell, he's even more punk than me!

Edit: kerning

[-] BlonksClown@lemmy.world 19 points 7 hours ago

Notice how he didn't cut down the real flock camera, because he's not actually about that

[-] valar@lemmy.ca 54 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago)

Right, why didn't this guy film himself cutting down a real flock in his video about how to protect your identity that he posted to his public account. /s

[-] Stache_@lemmy.ml 14 points 5 hours ago

I’ve seen this guy online before, he’s building a homestead out in the middle of the desert in like Arizona or something. No way he’d risk his account/income, I’m sure he checked with a lawyer before posting this

[-] SirSamuel@lemmy.world 7 points 3 hours ago

Yep, he's just a journalist 😉

[-] Hideakikarate@sh.itjust.works 39 points 7 hours ago

Don't make the cops' jobs easier.
