totally unrelated reminder that it's possible to find and catalog flock cameras that are in your local area at https://deflock.org/
And I imagine that anyone who did plan to partake in this would leave their phone at home so they cannot be associated with being in that area.
It's also possible they may use a spray paint can extender stick to reach the camera lenses, or cut through the aluminum polls with either a portable battery powered angle grinder or reciprocating saw, bought with cash.
