"My eyes! The Googles do nothing!"

This is why I advocate for the anti-surveillance method of "hit camera with big stick"

nobody is anywhere downrange

Reflections can also blind, so make sure no-one, including you, are uprange, or siderange (to stretch a wordform to breaking point) either.

Oi mate you got a loicense for that diode

"class 4" is just the highest class, being over 500mw. Technically, the experimental lasers they use on warships are class 4 lasers.

Most countries don't restrict owning them, but they do restrict selling them. When you have one, it's kinda like owning a kitchen knife, perfectly legal, but as soon as you do dumb shit with it, thats still on you.

And class 4 lasers make it VERY easy to do dumb shit.

I don't think a license is going to help you if you're found walking around with a 7 watt laser hooked up to the relevant drive circuitry. They're still going to presume you're up to no good, and, when they find a camera with a burned sensor, they're going to assume it was you. I guess the moral of this is: don't get caught.

We were promised lighsabers and yet we can't even have a cool torch!
