BC Hydro is shelling out $12,000 to repair chargers people are destroying in order to sell the copper for a paltry $20-$150

And it's happening more and more. The waste is unreal. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/ev-charger-thefts-rise-9.7323039

    Copper theft is insane. Doing security I've seen buildings after they've been stripped and walked in on it being done once.

    IMO this is late stage capitalism and the rest of us still working have economic guns to our heads.
