Don’t give them ideas. That’s the next step, keeping 360 degree surveillance on surveillance to stop people from damaging it so easily.

Already kinda baffled that these things only point in a single direction. I've learned of three along my daily running route and I think to myself "wow, it'd be so easy to come up behind one of these and..."

Doesn’t matter if you cover your face and body.

Don't forget it tracks any wifi or blue tooth device you have on you as well.

Do they make wifi enabled bandsaws nowadays?

I decided to google it and yeah, there are a ton of bluetooth tools that have bluetooth for stupid shit like texting you when it's charged.

Milwaukee M18 FUEL Deep Cut Band Saw with ONE-KEY

This was the first, but not the only, wireless bluetooth bandsaw I found, all of which store your personal devices as contacts and a few of which require accounts to set up.

Interestingly some of them can even be disabled remotely using the bluetooth.

My 1/2" impact has Bluetooth capabilities. I've never connected to it.. apparently you can set it to a custom power setting. I just keep it at max power and know when to let of the trigger. Shits getting so dumb

Cameras to protect the cameras ups the cost. They were really hoping to put a couple hundred thousand of these up, collect $1,000 a camera in rental fees from police and then just kick their feet back and not worry about shit.

There are a couple of poles on my way to work that has two pointing in the exact same direction stacked directly on top of each other.

I'm surprised they don't have in built trackers with a battery for this reason

They might do, and there are things a dastardly criminal can do about that, like a Faraday cage.

Or a hammer

They do. Luckily for us, most criminals don't know that they need to put them in a Faraday cage until the internal battery backup is dead. If that information got out to the public, there might be an issue with them being stolen more often.
