Good. We need to teach these pigs a lesson
Heartwarming.
Oh, Great news!
You most definatly shouldent make a cell phone app that you can put in front of the camera that just cycles through random plates and includes copies of conststution. I wonder if you can do 10 per second. 36000 per hour all day long.
Fun fact: lots of them have exposed cables that should not be cut with a long arm pruning pole found in your grandmother’s shed.
Another thing you should never ever do: mix paint and dot3 in a handheld pressurized garden poison sprayer.
What would brake fluid do?
Be aware brake fluid is like antifreeze, it tastes good to animals if they don’t put bad taste in it, and kills them.
They’re dying for an honorable cause. /s
Why shouldn’t dot3 mixed with paint? Just so I know why to avoid it.
guessing because it goes through the sprayer
Why not?
Because that would be illegal, and advice in easy-to-acess ways to sabotage fascism should not be shared anywhere.
I just learned HGTV has a Jan 7 2026 show called “Neighborhood Watch”. It’s like America’s Funniest Home Videos, but it’s all doorbell/security cameras. User-submitted, I think. I absolutely refuse to believe this was a casual idea from HGTV as they struggle to maintain viewership. There’s no way this isn’t funded by one of these companies, meant to continue making everyone comfortable with constant surveillance and increasing the desire to have constant recording devices to catch these one-off comedic moments.
Tagline: “Everywhere you go, cameras are recording. Your neighbors are watching.”
Fuck centralized surveillance.
I would like to have a brief discussion with whoever downvoted you.
I think it was accidental.
That’s the beauty of downvotes: no f-ing context on why people disagree with you or if they even do and are just holding a vendetta from somewhere else, since they aren’t forced to indicate why.
The account enjoys making a lot of very questionably inconsistent downvotes over their far fewer upvotes and even comments their own suggestion on how to sabotage Flock surveillance cameras in the thread yet doesn’t seem to be an edgelord in their own comments, so who knows. Unlike upvoting, where you presumably agree with a comment, downvoting provides no context as you have no clue why or how much they disagreed with something. Presumably the statement was too simplistic to resonate with their refined tastes, which to avoid the downvote should presumably have been stated with the collection of words they would favor as an argument, if they ever bothered to make it.
I don’t take is so personally. I have someone periodically following me around downvoting everything I write too it appears. It’s pathetic.
I think >50% of my up votes are me swiping right to go back but missing the screen border by a tiny bit, causing the jerboa swipe to vote to kick in.
so who knows, maybe they just accidentally hit the downvote arrow while scrolling?
Yeah, accidental voting happens to me when I’m using my phone. Kind of inevitable unless someone uses an app where voting is done through pulling left or right as opposed to tapping.
Do comments around here get disappeared or hidden if they get enough downvotes? If not, then I could give two fucks whether a comment gets 1 downvote or 100.
Good.
Well, the CEO did openly invite and approve of this. In his own words, Flock cameras aren’t forced on anyone. So the only logical conclusion is to destroy them if so desired.
Benn Jordan has done great videos on this stuff
Yeah, I was actually thinking about acquiring one myself. I want to dissect it, hook it up to some monitoring equipment/ software, see what I can learn about it… functionality, vulnerability, anything. But I’m also worried about the potential I accidentally show up on a video feed stored somewhere remote. I’ve been checking eBay for them, but honestly… there are several right by my home. We’ll see what happens, in time.
I’d recommend caution. No idea if these things have a built in GPS, but I wouldn’t be surprised considering how easy/cheap it is for electronics hobbyists to add GPS functionality to their projects. Take it home and fire it up and you may potentially be telling the gestapo right where you live.
Agreed. To do properly, you would probably want a verified screen room / faraday cage room. What they use for professional EMC testing. Might be able to jerry rig one I guess, but you’d want to test it for leaks if personal safety is on the line.
Thank you for saying “jerry rig” and not “jury rig”. I
looselose my shit everytime I “hear it”.
Powerfull hand held lasers can damage cameras, by pointing the laser at the lens.
Careful with reflections though!
Gotta use the right protective glasses for whatever powerful laser pointer you got. Powerful ones can fuck up your eyes even off of reflected surfaces.
Also, be sure to check that the sky is clear if you need to aim up.
There’s one a block from my house, and three blocks from my work, so they can see me coming and going each direction.
…BRB
There’s two on each of the roads to my favorite local freeway and there’s two in the parking lot of my local hardware store
This is exactly what this company deserves, to be smashed out of business and history.
Reminder: If you destroy a camera, be aware that other cameras in the area may be recording you as well. Protect your identity.
Leave your fucking phone at home too.
Faraday bags work… But test them.
I got a cheapo $7 Chromebook sized bag that seemed to work for my SOs iphone. We don’t use NFC so I couldn’t test that.
No BT, WiFi, or Cell, and probably no GPS.
I only did casual testing.
The screen still showed the signal having low bars for WiFi and cellular, but it didn’t actually receive a signal at all when trying to call or use the net, not even with the top of the bag open a sliver and my hand in there.
If the device was off or in airplane mode and in the bag, I’d be comfortable assuming it was safely hidden from tracking.
I haven’t thoroughly tested my various personal devices, but I expect identical results.
I think everyone should probably have a bag like this around, in a go-bag or something, just in case. And it’s safer to have your phone available than not, as long as it’s secure (use a pin or password to lock it, use encryption, put emergency info on it for first responders).
If you’re going to use a Faraday bag, use it regularly, like every day at random times.
Imagine you are being accused of a crime. The crime occured at 8pm. The phone records show that your phone went dark at your house 7pm and then reconnected at 9pm at your house. The crime scene is 1 hour away from your home by foot. Records show this is the only time your phone went dark in a very long time.
So if you bag your phone (aluminium foil bags work pretty good too), do it regularly, randomly, and don’t bag it and unbag it immediately before leaving or after getting home
Good, fuck this panopticon dystopia shit.
Also, some guy sliced the entire pole and left a message:
hahaha get wrecked ya surveilling fucks
looks like he tore it off at the end after slicing most of it.
hahaha get wrecked ya surveilling fucks
lol
They sell battery powered angle grinders at Harbour Freight.
Pay cash
Wear a mask
And smoke a little grass?
Definitely eat ass
No need to be crass.
Enough with the sass
Paint ball guns with permanent ink ammunition works too.
i prefer the one in the picture by a commentor, permanently remove the flock camera.
powerful laser pointers can burn camera sensors out too
Just please wear properly rated safety glasses and keep them away from bystanders.
Damn that’s aluminium, not steel. You can do that with an angle grinder, reciprocating saw, or even a mapp gas torch
I can definitely cut steal with my angle grinder.
But what about steel?
“crime”
This news man lol
Killing nazis is also a crime. Both currently, and throughout nazi Germany. Do with that information what you will.
Guess who else also needs to be “vandalized”
panopticon
Great word choice.
It’s quite common to hear we’re living in a digital panopticon. See modern philosophers.
lol that’s so cool!
Can’t have shit in Detroit.
