A New York subway rider has accused a woman of breaking his Meta smart glasses. She was later hailed as a hero.
I can see an angle when refusal is going to escalate things badly for reasons that could be understood.
Whatever "angle" you see is your mind trying to justify forcefully grabbing someone's property to destroy it.
I don't like surveillance either.
But you can't go around forcefully breaking other people's stuff unless it threatens your well being at that moment.
The thing is, it may actually threaten someone's wellbeing.
Surveillance, especially under a police state, can be a very clear and sometimes immediate threat.
You can't legally commit violence based on a hypothetical scenario.
You can't legally overthrow an oppressive regime, either. Legality is not the same as morality.
Ok, but you can't morally attack someone for a hypothetical scenario either.
Exactly. The amount of people here saying “let the cops do it” or saying something about how whatever response is “illegal” is irritating.
