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

I’ve heard the excuse that they’re private property so they can’t. They’re not hard to remove though. They’re usually just attached to poles with pipe clamps.
I’m not so sure about that because even if they are privately owned, that doesn’t mean they have the inherent right to be mounted on a city pole. The property isnt harmed by removing them from the pole and storing them in a deep underground bunker infested with Hanta Virus rats, black widows, and alligators.
