It's a wonder people haven't started throwing water balloons filled with mud and flour at the cameras. Perhaps he should be grateful that's not a trend?

I don't know why I thought of this, but they make telescoping poles for wasp spray. I wonder if any other type of aerosol can would fit in them, or why you would even want to do that?

Paintball guns are very effective in (temporarily) blinding these cams and you can keep your distance.

Also harsh cleaning chemicals like Windex with Ammonia will degrade the IR/anti-glare coatings horribly and will lead to unusable shots within a season or two.

DeFlock is just a front end for OSM, does that make OSM a "terrorist organization" too?

This guy is LITERALLY AL QUEDA ISIS and THE DEVIL.

Boost this signal! Actual Satan!!

We can all just say crazy shit. Fucking asshole. Choke.

Deflock kind of implied by existing in the first place that they thought Flock was a terrorist organization

So, to compare logic, people selling chocolate bars and cigarettes are calling the health industry terrorists. Profit should always come first. /s
