I mean the whole point of flock is that they can track you everywhere. Destroying their cameras doesn't destroy the footage.

If you destroy their cameras they will just trace your movements backwards until they find a way to identify you.

You need to find a way to do it surreptitiously so it's not clear who is doing it, and they won't be able to figure it out by process of elimination by seeing who is commonly present when a camera iss destroyed.

If this were really true, there would be no crime right now. Nancy Guthrie has been missing for months now despite the perpetrator being caught on camera in an affluent neighborhood where there would be many Ring, Flock etc. cameras. These companies overpromise and underdeliver as they all do. Their main purpose is get people to pay them. They are much less competent than they claim to be.

The easiest way to best an opponent is to always assume they have the upper hand. If flock cameras are half as good as they say they are then approaching it as if it were twice as good means it will be good enough to match.

Being over prepared will never cost you as much as being under prepared.

Possibly, but I don't wanna risk my freedom on them being incompetent rather than corrupt.

[–] Eric@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

I just want to counter their propaganda is all

I wonder how hard it would be to rig up a teeny drone with a bit of thermite?

[–] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 1 points 6 hours ago

That's an expensive way to get rid of a single camera, and they could theoretically track a drone around the city like they track people, and they'd track it back to you.
