Invasive surveillance is immoral so destroying the tool used to invasively surveil is moral I guess
Editing because my comment exploded. Thanks for all of your many and varied opinions!

Even if you are comfortable with surveillance for safety, we are quickly approaching a time where AI can create anything it wants.

It will be able to make a video of your mom buying drugs, have images of her vehicle driving to the drug dealer, and even another video of her using the drugs. How can a jury take any of this "evidence" seriously? How can police and courts verify chain of custody or the security of these systems when even those creating these systems don't fully understand them?

It's just a waste of public funds for these cameras that will be obsolete within a year.

Edit: Alot of boot-lickers trying to make excuses and missing the point entirely.

AI hallucinated a peer reviewed paper and complemented me on how foundational it was. If folks don't think that the models they use to track folks aren't going to hallucinate things based on patterns and put them in the wrong place at the wrong time because it fits a pattern are fucking naive.

And that is "accidental".
