> I wonder how many Flock decision makers will take personal offense to their little installations being damaged

I'd bet any amount of money it will be approximately 0.

Easy for people to feel disrespected when damaging property associated with them, no?
You think the secretary at one of the Flock offices feels personal disrespect hearing about a camera 2,000 miles away getting spray painted? Someone writing code for the web app? The guy wiring up the solar panel?

No, I think for 95% of the people who work at Flock it's just a job and they could care less about the "safety" of their cameras, and I'm willing to bet the rest are so well compensated they don't really care. Or they're complete psychopaths incapable of feeling emotion at all, like the CEO who called deflock a "terrorist organization."

Oops! The Flock decision makers were supposed to be those who make decisions on installations in the communities they were elected to serve.

Thanks for your reply, sorry about that. Restated-

Community decisionmakers on local Flock installs will get their knickers bunched by vandalism, not unlike how they close bathrooms after repeated spraypaintings (or worse, ew!).

RE: Deflock - wow! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-kZGrDz7PU) Starts by shouting out ACLU & EFF, maybe that Deflock Discord had some naughty people on it. “Terroristic” gooooodness
