Cities should be just as afraid of deploying Flock cameras.
Did you know tubing cutters are cheap, portable, and silent in their operation?

The cameras have copper in them too. Probably.
Attaching to this to remind everyone that these cameras have sensors to scrape rfid, nfc, tpms, Bluetooth, and wifi ssids as well. They’re not ‘license plate readers’. They’re full suite surveillance systems that’ll capture every ID passing by. Your list of remembered wifi connections in your phone is a trackable fingerprint, and unless you take steps, it’s being broadcast every time you turn on wifi.
Your phone is not broadcasting a list of WiFi networks it wants to connect to. That’s not how it works at all.
It is periodically (couple of times a second probably) checking the available SSIDs to see if there is one that matches a remembered network on it’s list.
It would be horribly insecure to have a device broadcasting the name of a network that it would actively try to connect to.
Thats what i keep hearing. I bet they have cameras and maybe sim cards too. Along with a spiffy solar panel.
This gave me a good laugh, imagine putting the SIM card into a mobile router or something. Just use it like a data plan, no big deal.
I think someone did it but with a device thought for blocking your car
Sure, but this is an international thing, Flock is US only. And it’s completely expected to see comments about something US specific written like it’s a global thing (or that nothing outside the US exists) because that’s fucking always the case.
The 'Murica brain, like yours, just can’t comprehend that the vast majority of the world isn’t the US.
Your comment says way more about you than you comprehend and your assumptions about all Americans are laughable. Having a bad day, are we? Maybe you should call your mum.
You should fly yourself and your asshole attitude back to Reddit, find the rest of your miserable flock and claim victory, that is if they don’t ignore your sorry ass there too.
Unfortunately, this has a habit of becoming a self-reinforcing need for authoritarian policing.
“Flock camera destruction” becomes the rationale for more cameras and more cops and more draconian punishments. And this cycle continues so long as the public continues to send up corporate shills and industry hacks to fill the municipal offices.
Oh good to know. I guess we’ll just have to stick with the alternative. Do nothing and watch it happen anyway.
No, you have to go after the local politicians who keep approving these systems. Electorally of course, you psychos. Your local city council rep is going to feel much more pressure from an angry letter from a voter than your senator would.
I heard they’re chock full of copper
Elected officials are loaded with copper.
Follow them around with cameras. They need to feel the dystopian pressure themselves
They will sue you for harassment. Keep in mind that when it’s done to them, it’s “different”.
Or not, if push really comes to shove.
But you do have to recognize that you can’t just break the fascade of the machine to get it to stop working.
Vote harder, libs!
This is probably one of the few issues you could really get grass roots bipartisan support on these days. It would have to be marketed right though. Maybe something like “DEI cameras”, or “6G posts”.
Ignore the vote! If we don’t vote, it delegitimizes the election and then the local government will be forced to ignore everyone that stayed home and still do the awful thing anyway because the winner is an open fascist.
Much better alternative!
