[Noisebridge-discuss] Fwd: sleeping in turing

Mon Jan 14 21:26:30 UTC 2013

"i invite anyone and everyone who catches anyone taking pictures of people
WITHOUT their knowledge and permission to grab the camera, take it straight
to the dirty room or wherever, and get to pounding it into e-waste making
sure you have destroyed the disc and/or film...

and this is your right by the way and NO, they can't sue you so no worries
(great hacking too)..."

Yeah, destroying someone else's property is tooootaly within your rights...
(sarcasm...) Even if taking the pictures was illegal, that doesn't give
anyone free reign to go about destroying people's equipment. It doesn't
even sound like you're trying to be reasonable (or you wouldn't be shouting
nonsense), and what you're encouraging is very not-excellent.
