Replying to @sanitation@lemmy.today
Are there good ways to kill a flock camera from a distance?
Could aiming a laser at the lense damage the ccd in the camera?
One-watt 532nm green laser or a .22LR bullet. The bullet is probably safer.
That’s fair. Yeah some Halloween costumes are all well and good, but for the rest of the year, it would be great if there’s a way to destroy these cameras without getting caught on camera yourself.
The thought behind the laser idea was just that it might not draw a lot of attention.
If anyone has better ideas, please do share them. My goal is to come up with less risky ways of dismantling them than getting right up there with a ladder. The .22 might be the simplest solution so far.
Seems like a mask and no electronics on you would be a far better solution here. Perhaps even a fancy mask celebrating the great Spooky Season holiday.
