Comment on Across the US, people are dismantling and destroying Flock surveillance cameras

I wonder if Flock cameras would be susceptible to burnout from a DVD-writer laser. Hmm.

Or just accidentally spraying some paint in their direction…

Yeah I’d thought of drones right away too – but those are being criminalized so rapidly esp. in the USA from what I hear… and drones can draw a lot of attention esp. in certain areas.
DVD-writer lasers are, if I recall, not visible to the naked eye, which makes them quite dangerous (cheesy video apparently confirms this, at the end) to be paired with a visible light or dollar-store visible laser pointer, to set up the aim. Then just leave the DVD laser on for a few minutes or however long it would take to burn out the CCD.

I mean you wouldn’t be destroying them. I’m sure it would be a marginally lesser charge but no doubt you’d get charged eventually.
