You can buy lasers on Temu that you should absolutely not point at a camera because it will burn it out almost immediately.
Some are especially dangerous, because they include “spread caps” that make it a bunch of dots or a design meaning you could easily accidentally put out the cameras in Flock towers or drones with a passing flash.
Because even if it’s AI, it needs to see where it’s flying.
I would actually suggest against pointing a class 3 laser above the horizon. I have tried to figure out how far one would be at full illumination and I had no way of measuring over 2km. Any pilot can see one from like a 10 km radius of the beam.
By next year there will be cities in which drones are dispatched to disperse any crowd of 5 or more people, anywhere the AI sees them.
Acceptable levels of danger depends on the situation.
Statistically speaking you’re more likely to be shot if you own a gun. I’d still recommend Americans have at least a gun these days.
That’s not the same as saying go drive around busting caps like it’s 2016 again. Just like pointing out the cheapness of those lasers and what they do to surveillance and drones isn’t telling people to buy one today and a month later when it shows up use it like a searchlight on premier night.
Things happen fast these days, if people are legitimately concerned about widespread use of government surveillance drones…
It is unironically illegal to stand around with more than 2 people outside in russia, which maga is so adamant to follow the example of, so you are not far off.

Could you link one, please?

Just be careful with other peoples eyes, dont even look at the dot, lasers are really bad toys

It 100% is dangerous.
But…

$50 can buy some peace of mind.
So, youre saying someone could be out of visual range of a camera and still take it down? Thats horrible!
I am saying class 3 lasers are not toys, they are kind of dangerous.

And by the following year, top hats housing hidden EMP cannons will be all the rage.
Finally! A use for all these gears and gauges!
