Then I don't even have the option of throwing my phone or alexa in the fireplace.
This makes sense to me. Not sure where people are getting lost. This commenter p410n3 is clearly a cynic. Some people think the world is always listening, always watching them. But what they don't realize is they blend in with the noise because they aren't all that important. No one cares to listen to them. I don't think they like that answer though ;)
I just don't like the idea of a flying high def camera in my face that I can't grab and smash against the wall. Because it's literally flying above me out of reach.
If I had tech to destroy it. I would use that tech. I guess a gun would work if you're a good shot. They use hawks in Scotland.
I mean, also because laws? When you're out in public folks can record you with the high def cameras on their smartphones today, and you're still not allowed grab them and smash them against the wall without consequences.
How is CCTV that much different? Or people with cameras?
