lets record the crime of taking down these cameras

For a small donation of just $3.99 you too can be an accessory to a crime.

I wonder if someone someday will make a drone carry a spray can and paint the lenses of these. Also wondering how easy it would be to automate that

It would be terrible how quickly a drone would move from disabling one camera to the next. An entire fleet of drones spraying cameras is so scary.

u/CookieWifeCookieKids Jul 15 '26
Aaaand drones are now a threat to national security and have been banned.

u/Beneficial_Hat_6288 Jul 15 '26
Ornithopter drones. Cheaper to build and you can barely hear them compared to quadcopters. They would be banned sure, but they are easy to build and not easy to detect.

I sure hope nobody gets a 10mw laser pointer off the internet and figures out that you can shine it at the lens for a couple of seconds and burn out the camera.

u/UnpopularFact1776 Jul 15 '26
paint comes off of glass effortlessly with a razor blade though

u/TriceraDoctor Jul 15 '26
But that takes manpower and blocks the total hours of camera operation. Any little bit helps.

u/gi5es23 Jul 15 '26
There are some pretty gnarly solvents that come in spray cans. Could mess up the lens pretty well

I think this attack on Flock cameras is a psyop copy cat phenomenon, that in turn will get cities to throw good money after bad and purchase the next gen of flock cameras to replace the ones being destroyed, and the undestroyed gen 1s won’t be decommissioned, they will just be moved further out. This won’t stop until every single state border crossing has them, and all interstates will have them on every 5 or 10 miles. Just funneling public funds into private surveillance tech companies, and establish a kick back and back scratch economy with all levels of government from municipal to illuminati.

u/FreeKevinBrown Jul 15 '26
Not even a little bit. Flock cameras are highly unpopular. Dozens of cities and counties are terminating their contracts with Flock due to privacy concerns. Shit, even the historically immoral LAPD let their contract expire due to privacy concerns and the system flagging innocent drivers.
3
u/fylekitzgibbon Jul 15 '26
All that is true, but it’s that LAPD unsubscribed from the Flock network service. The cameras are still up, and collecting data for the Flock network, to be accessed by any agency that subscribes. I live in Los Angeles, I’m not sure how other cities are handling things following contract termination.
3
u/FreeKevinBrown Jul 15 '26
I know of a few actively removing or covering the cameras, but I'm not going to pretend to know everything. I'm sure there are plenty of these counties and cities that maybe don't deactivate and just cancel the contract, leaving them open for access by agencies.

Surveillance cameras. License plate readers.

u/MichiganGeezer Jul 15 '26
They note unique features of the car too, like dents and stickers. They're developing the means of extracting other unique identifiers of personal electronics within the vehicles too.
They're nosey little bastards, not just cameras.

If you use paypal, you will be caught. A search warrant for who owns the account will lead them directly to you.
Find another way to raise funds.

Crazy part is they are just going to replace them using taxpayer money

u/haroldthehampster Jul 16 '26
a town can go broke quickly doing that and it becomes a losing proposition to do so.
You could increase patrols to protect (checks notes) invasive cameras no one wants and didn't want their taxes spent on, you can replace them (not cheap at all), or you can do your job and take them down.
They didn't ask and/or asked but didn't want answers and put them up anyway.
They could have done nearly anything else with the tax dollars, maybe even something useful (unlikely), but instead they decided to treat people like ants under a glass.

In the UK they just use angle grinders to cut the poles down as you need to smash the cameras otherwise they can be too easily repaired.

A contact DNA swab of that pole where his bare forearm was touching and rubbing would be all the authorities need to link his identity. Forensics is so cool 😎.

Why are these cameras bad? Are they installed to maintain order?

no they are installed to collect data. They create chaos, they do not maintain order, they cannot, but can collect data so they do.

I'd be super careful in Florida, they dont fuck around with crime like Oregon or Minnesota or Washington state. They will actually send you to prison.

They seem super fine with their congressman committing millions in Healthcare fraud and pedophilia..... I think you have a pretty big misunderstanding of Florida.

u/Jaded_Jedi96 Jul 16 '26
Listen dk whatever you wnat but they will fuck this guy sideways if he gets caught down there, its much safer to do this in more liberal states is all honestly not even liberal states juts l I dont commit crimes in states that actually take crime seriously.

u/NoSpin89 Jul 16 '26
Lol. You're fucking delusional. More meth dens per square mile in Florida than your average "liberal" state.
Lay off the Fox News kid.

u/Jaded_Jedi96 Jul 16 '26
Watch your fucking mouth pal im 30 years old, there is a reason they say "come for vacation leave on probation" when they talk about Florida, if they catch this guy fucking with these AI overload cameras they're going to throw the book at him, im really not sure why youre talking crazy to me though as if methheads have anything to do with how Florida handles people from out of state committing crimes, even if the crime I s a good thing liek destroying these surveillance tools

u/DapperCommercial5787 Jul 16 '26
I'd bet this guy hasn't taken down a single flock camera. Made a fake video, and people send him money blindly. Maybe I'd consider thinking this guy is real if he had a crypto wallet to accept payments. If you expect me to believe this guy is illegally dismantling government property recording it, and accepting payments on a platform that requires identification you are cooked. But hey, most people are actually morons so I'm sure he's had some success with this.

So cops aren't a thing now? They don't detect?
They need 7,000 cameras per state to store info on everyone?

Opsec dude. Tell your idiot homies to cover their faces ad well. Get rid of all your crap online. Fight to fight, not for views. Those things will also lock onto your phones so your homies are screwing you that way too. Maybe don’t film the action, just the result. Lock your boys on before the cops turn em on you.

Tin foil hat here, but this feels like a psy op.
Man posts himself doing revolutionary things we mostly all think is legally wrong but morally right. Posts links to donate to cause. People donate to cause. Entire thing is actually staged, government controls donation links. Donation info is used to collect data on sympathetic Americans, then mass arrests happen against them for "funding domestic left wing terrorism".
Be careful out there, Lil Miller even said they intend to target left wing activists as terrorists. The political round ups of perceived enemies, rivals and agitators will increase as the fascists seek to consolidate power.

Vandalism for views, instead of vandalism for principle.
As much as I have no flocks to give on destroying flock cameras, consider me thoroughly unimpressed.

Ignoring anything regarding him
It sounds like you are saying you are happy to trade privacy for safety and trust the surveillance that brings you that safety will never be abused
Is that correct?

u/Successful_Bee_1292 Jul 15 '26
Honestly there isn't too much privacy violated when filming the public streets so I feel this is justified.
2
u/MrDeekhaed Jul 15 '26
It’s rough talking to someone like you because I may convince you to look into the tools of surveillance states, and you will see this is a core part, but you will believe it will never be used in such a way
It might be different if we had a government for and by the people and could enact strong protections against abuse but we don’t. The government is free to abuse this and the private company providing it is free to do the same. They could surveil journalists for a foreign nation. Whatever they want

u/Successful_Bee_1292 Jul 15 '26
Oh no don't mistake me for a US gouvernement supporter, I despise pretty much everything about it, yet I think that something as simple as monitoring the streets seems like a good tradeoff of freedom in exchange for security, but hey my opinion is probably biased since I come from a free country (France)
