CDR: low tech surveillance-cam countermeasures in Israel
Hizbullah operatives seeking to block IDF cameras (IsraelWire-11/10) Hizbullah guerilla forces are stepping up their anti-Israel activities, including efforts to block sophisticated IDF cameras installed along the northern border. With the use of mirrors, Hizbullah is working to block the effectiveness of the surveillance cameras installed along the northern border. The cameras, mounted atop armored personnel carriers, were deployed following the unilateral IDF withdrawal from southern Lebanon in June. Hizbullah activists are using mirrors to blind the cameras with sunlight, making surveillance increasingly difficult at a time when the northern border remains on high alert. http://www.virtualjerusalem.com/articles/542001.htm

Lasers can be good too.

APCs do make it harder to use the traditional Anglo-American approaches techniques developed for speed-trap cameras, which involve ski masks and spray paint or baseball bats. But rifles can be fun. On the other hand, cameras keep getting cheap, and you can hide radio-equipped web-quality cameras for nearly no money anywhere you've got electricity, so getting all (or enough) of them can be harder.
