There isn’t that much precious metal in a small camera. The meme is about encouraging scrappers who steal,things to get scrap metal convinced it’s true and have them destroy the network. So, trying to con some criminals for the good of society.
No, they don’t do that. The meme is a joke to guide them to do that. They steal. Wiring, bricks, car parts. Sometimes from corporates but more often from people or small businesses who dont have security guards. Let’s not glamorise theft of property that is not privacy invasive.
I see… Another “quick win” makes a little sense then too, sorry.
This won’t last enough, I believe, and may result in permanent distrust even. The person who believed you will eventually realize you lied to them, and why should they trust you in the future?
Meaning, why start from a lie in the first place? A foundation built on a lie eventually collapses, and the people who trusted that lie are often the ones who get hurt the most.
Since you clearly have a message people value, that is, current terrible privacy issues, why not give them a better start, an actual path with a reason to trust you, the purpose and idea, for the long run by carrying the truth instead?
Could be plated copper, unless you have better information - I’ve seen similar components in breaker panels and the like that are plated copper (plated because raw copper likes to corrode and get ugly looking).
This makes no sense, sorry. Why would it be silver out of anything like stainless steel?

Stop calling them criminals. They defend our right of privacy.

Anyways, i hate being filmed in public.
Me too. I don’t think we we’d to just dismantle them. We need to make the concept illegal.
Since when have laws mattered? The wealthy do whatever they want.
“security researchers”
Which is nonsense. As a criminal, I fucking hate these things.
What did you say? I can’t read that

So “it’s just a meme bro!” Is the new “it’s just a joke bro!”?
Only if it’s on a meme community.
Err, this community is microblog memes.
I don’t think it’s that serious dude.
Those are aluminium BTW.

I have just worked with aluminum pieces in a machine shop enough to spot em. I would be shocked if they were plated copper and not just aluminum.

Not that it applies here, but hypothetically… one might choose silver for better conductivity and lower heat in high current applications.
