If I invented a shirt that caused cameras to be damaged when filmed/photographed, would I be committing a crime by wearing the shirt at events with cameras? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

I am thinking if you could wear a mirror that would direct all the sunlight right at the camera. That would have to be an active tracking system, but wouldn't emit any light itself.

Yep, I would be a whale.

Using licence plate readers to track ICE in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

That's what I mean. Sometimes they are there observing the situation from a distance, or just driving by, not doing anything. What I ask is if the city council (or whoever is in charge) could tell the police to document the plate numbers of all the vehicles.

I am thinking more cities doing this, they're the ones that own the cameras. Sure, some city councils love Trump, many others are probably scared of doing anything. But there must be some that are willing to resist.

Using licence plate readers to track ICE (lemmy.world)
 

Would it be realistic to use licence plate readers that cities have (like Flock) to track ICE activity? Most of the time local police are at the scene of these events, even though they should not be helping in any way (in a santuary state). The police could collect the plate number of all the ice vehicles, and put them into a hotlist.

Any time one drives past a plate reader, it will post it publcly and maybe send an alert to anyone who opts in.

How feasable would this be?
