If you want a tool that turns Flock cameras into bricks, all you need is a brick.

... Or wire cutters, or a big hammer, or an angle grinder, or a drill, or a large rock, or a can of spray paint, etc, etc, etc. They're not terribly resilient against physical damage.

I've been thinking of buying a slingshot and some paintballs. For another, completely irrelevant purpose though, obviously.

Remember to mask up when you're going out playing with paintballs -- for covid safety! Wear sunglasses, too -- you don't want eye damage from the bright sunlight.

Oh, and perhaps most importantly, leave your phone at home. Wouldn't want to accidentally hit your phone with a paintball, would you?

problem is the camera sees you offing it. unless you bloc up way away, and not near your own stuff.
