    That would be a class IV laser and dangerous to eyesight merely from the light scattered off surfaces you point it at. If you point it at a camera and watch what is happening for a while you could get irreversible eye damage.

    There is nothing special about cameras that makes them vulnerable - if you shine such a laser at a person, you’ll likely burn them too. If the beam shines or bounces into your eye, you will likely burn your retina before you can even blink.

    This is not a meme or a shitpost, it is very dangerous.

          Aircraft don’t always have transponders on so can’t rely on flight trackers

          Imagine blinding a [military] pilot even just for the briefest moment. We can’t keep them in the sky on a good day for reasons I don’t understand (they’ll hit commercial aircraft or vice versa!)

          Places like Santa Cruz simply fought these spy cams with their voices. Riseeee upppp, no votes for any city councilpeople who are OK Flocking up their own turf
