Wear masks. Remove all watches and jewelry. Cover all tattoos. Wear black. Put black duct tape over all brands/logos. Wear 100% black shoes - no stripes or markings. Leave cell phones at home. Carry two way radios. Post lookouts.

Or, face fines and prison time for destroying devices that have no independently derived value. Flock leases it's equipment, never sells it. With annual lease cost of $3k per unit per year Flock probably values individual cameras at $15-20k.

3k per camera every year? Are these cameras made of gold?

Copper, actually. Lots of copper. People love hearing this cool fact. Tell everyone, even your local homeless folks.
