It's already happening. Someone local to me seems to be spray-painting over ring cameras and leaving flyers about the ring-flock-ice connection. I can't say I agree with the methods, but it is sending a message.

Police still need a warrant for ring camera footage. Its just that overwhelmingly people will hand over the footage if police ask.

"A suspected criminal walked past your house the other day, mind sharing your doorbell cam footage with us?"

"Sure officer, no problem!"

I can. Didn't consent to being surveilled when in public.

On the flip side, trespassing and vandalism by some nut is also an excellent ad for security cameras by itself, so…

What other methods have actually worked?

At this point, I don't mind the methods. Shit is far gone if you're actively enabling the surveillance state, people have a right to fight back. I'm sure this won't go over well here.
