I'm expecting laws soon that make damaging or destroying mass surveillance cameras an enhanced felony like terrorism.

No prosecutor wants to take that case to a jury.

[–] DanceMomsSavedMe@lemmy.zip 27 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yes they do.

Same pool of citizens that voted for Trump and friends. They know how to stack a jury.

[–] holy_scroller@lemmy.zip 10 points 1 month ago

I don't think this is a partisan issue, but I do understand that Trumpism defies strongly help political beliefs.

Man the air force is cooking lately.

[–] halcyoncmdr@piefed.social 34 points 1 month ago

The Air Force is the military branch with minimum requirements for mental capabilities, even if not officially. Pilots and aircraft mechanics are not front line fodder. And until the Space Force came along, they handled most of the stuff related to managing space as well.

The Army and Marines will basically take anyone breathing. And the Navy is a bit of a mix, just gotta be a little bit gay since you're gonna be stuck on a boat for months at a time with a bunch of seamen.

Is it really surprising that it's the Air Force that would have the servicemen that can read, comprehend, and act against all this obvious bullshit?

Everybody should take down all of them.

Almost willing to say hang out there for the guy to come replace it and beat him just shy of disablement.

That's a little severe, but stupidity should be a crime. And with a job like that you're either a bad guy or a stupid good guy. Or if your forced to work there somehow, you should be dismantling it from within.

Around here they made a schedule to install them in the dead of night, like 1 or 2am. It was maddening watching them pop up.

[–] 1984@lemmy.today 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I think you should be happy that stupidity isn't a crime since your comment is very stupid.

Hurting the guy who installs a camera is absolutely the worst idea I've ever heard to fight flock surveillance.

[–] Bane_Killgrind@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

As a guy that installs cameras I'm not against it

[–] Zoot@reddthat.com 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Yeah for real, camera install techs have plenty of options. I've left plenty of corporate lpw voltage companies because they're shit towards the customer. Generally mom an pop pay better anyway!

[–] Bane_Killgrind@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago

Yup

I'll be fucked if I push products that spy on people to my customers.

I'd try doxing them and damaging their vehicles first. Contractors will just stop taking those jobs.

No need to get violent until Flock employees are forced to to come out and do it themselves..

That's gross.

I’m pretty sure that guy was teaching me jury nullification on those days. Couldn’t be him.
