Regretful cities aren’t sure how to cancel their surveillance contracts, so they are literally covering their cameras.

    I’d like to think that the bag is step 1. Step 2 is to balance an old car tire on top, and set it on fire.

        1. City installs trash bags because they’re contractually obligated to keep the devices installed and powered on
        2. Someone hosts an impromptu Office Space fan meetup, with a fun reenactment of the printer scene
        3. City sees this, responds with an obvious but legally non-actionable tweet response suggesting it continue (e.g. “Fartsburg loves Mike Judge films, too! So nice to see our citizens enjoying the various forms of recreation and socialization ths city has to offer.”), along with some conspicuously-placed garbage cans near all of the cameras’ installed locations.
        4. ???
        5. (No) Profit. (for Flock)
