totally unrelated reminder that it’s possible to find and catalog flock cameras that are in your local area at https://deflock.org/
And I imagine that anyone who did plan to partake in this would leave their phone at home so they cannot be associated with being in that area.
It’s also possible they may use a spray paint can extender stick to reach the camera lenses, or cut through the aluminum polls with either a portable battery powered angle grinder or reciprocating saw, bought with cash.
Something else unrelated: You can buy spray foam insulation at any hardware store. It expands and sets relatively quickly, and can be used to block light as well as heat and sound. They make sprayers with long hoses too, if you’re looking to insulate some hard-to-reach areas.
Important to know how broad and generic there queries can been when police (or whomever) searches the Flock database as shown in these reports

Personally I’d be a bit cautious about putting in your own license plate number there. I can’t find any immediate red flags, but it just seems like good opsec to not potentially expose your own plate if they’re not being honest about not storing queries.
If anyone else knows more about how legit the group running that site is, feel free to chime in. They are funded by The Alternative Newsweekly Foundation, who are members of the Association of Alternative News Media, but I don’t know much about either, and the wiki entry for it is pretty sparse.
I wonder if a simple pipe cutter would actually work and be extremely quiet. I mean, I have no idea because they don’t even exist here but you can cut through pretty thick steel pipe with a pipe cutter pretty quick. Seems like a big pipe cutter might do the job too. But I have no idea and no way to find out, so take my curiosity for what it’s worth.
For someone planning to partake in those events, I would suspect they would opt to leave the stuff on the street so there is no chance of them being linked to it through physical means.

They’re not.

The aluminium poles and commodity electronics are useful for makers.
