"At least 25 cameras have been destroyed". Sounds like a mere drop in the bucket.

The author wants them smashed. The point of the article is to attempt to normalize and provide justification for the behavior, so that more people feel OK doing it.

Why smash them when you can harvest them. I’m sure they have components that can be sold.

Better yet, dismantle them without harm and send them back with no return address. Reduces what you can be charged with, prevents Flock from getting insurance benefits, and is all the more frustrating for them to deal with.
