  • There is simply no safe way to use a laser to destroy these things. Human eyes are more delicate than any electronic component. If the laser is powerful enough to destroy any component in the camera, random reflections will be a risk for any other person that happens to be in the area. All surfaces are both reflective and absorptive to some degree. All surfaces will reflect some of the laser light. Unless you’re pointing one of these high-powered lasers directly at an empty sky, there’s simply no way to use one of these lasers safely in public. Maybe if you were on some giant deserted ranch out in a rural area it would be fine. But forget about using one of these outdoors in any urban area.

    I mean, fuck flock. But really, truly, do not do this.

    I don’t give a damn about the Flock cameras. Set them on fire or steal them and sell them for scrap for all I care. But a laser powerful enough to quickly fry a camera sensor is going to be an extreme danger to human eyes. These type of lasers can be acquired fairly easily, but you don’t want to be using them in public outdoor spaces. At these power levels, even reflections of laser light can be damaging to human eyes. And when you shine laser light on a solar panel or camera lens, some is going to be scattered in random directions. Sure, you can make sure to wear laser safety goggles while doing this. But random bystanders won’t have that luxury.






  • Much like with the AIDS epidemic or the Ebola outbreak, Hauntavirus has a slower rate of spread and avoidable vector for transmission, but a significantly higher mortality rate.

    You sure you’re not talking about regular hantavirus? Most strains can’t transmit from person to person; they require vectors such as mice and other rodents. But the variant people are worried about is capable of spreading directly from person to person. Cruise ships and plains may make it easy to transmit viruses that require close personal contact. But they’re not exactly known for their rodent infestations.













  • We’re talking about people who openly commit multiple felonies on a daily basis. They’re openly practicing mass bribery and insider trading. They routinely murder random civilians in the Caribbean. They’ve been openly flaunting the law on Congressional appropriations from day one. They are a criminal organization.

    Faking an assassination is a minor item on their already extensive rap sheet. When they’ve already committed dozens of murders, what’s a fake assassination at that point?
