    Another pointless protest. Do people seriously believe this kind of performative gathering is going to stop indiscriminate mass surveillance? It’s just the organizers creating more noise for self-promotion and microplastics everywhere 💀

      Someone in the comments recommended using an actual old sock. I don’t know. I don’t like these things. but I don’t have a circular saw. To be fair, I don’t have a 3D printer either. Is spray paint and old socks the way?

        Hacksaws are pretty cheap and a good blade on a tight saw makes shockingly fast progress on aluminum and mild steel.

          You’re right, but if I’m killing one of these things in view of the public, I want in and out in seconds.

            If it’s the right kind of blade and you’re not out of shape, it is still seconds. No, not sawsall fast, but faster than an angle grinder, for example.

        150g filament and takes less than four hours

        Seems like a lot to me. I think an old sock is better
