Nah such surveilliance cams cost a fucking fortune. You actually might get in serious financial trouble if they find you guilty of destroying one.
I’m certain they’d figure out new books to throw at you. How dare you interfere with the surveillance state?
Anyhoo, I’m too old to be wearing a V mask and burgling such devices. Neither do I live in that town, or that country. Or, on that side of the world. No, it’s up to other brave defenders to fight that battle; I’ve got my hands full trying to prevent my own country from turning into a full-on dictatorship.
PS oh! And WRT to cost, a $400 hammer is still a hammer. Having a fancy plastic shell doesn’t mean the guts aren’t off Alibaba. Or have you dismantled one yourself?
Get ya point mate. Just to answere your question:
Nope didn’t so far. But looked into the prices for personal interest.
The cheap Homesurveilliance stuff - sure cheapest sensors you have seen.
But the expensive stuff? Sensors are actually decent, often coppled with optical zoom.
But none of those are super expensive in the making I believe. The devices promise of delivering and not having any downtime in harsh environments is the relevant price maker.
But tbf the whole area of surveilliance is filled with overpriced shit.
Nonetheless, one that dismantles such appliances would have to pay those stupid prices for compensation. Hence the heads up.
Yah, I hear you. It’s just common for companies to overcharge governments (and corporations) for Enterprise hardware which, often, barely differs from consumer versions except cosmetically.
