What network was the camera connected to? Who removed the camera? Where is the camera now?

I would 100% take the camera and put it on the internet (Send photos of the teardown to BB etc.). Sell it for fun. I mean, if it doesn’t belong to the city and DEFINITELY doesn’t belong to this asshole, nobody should object…
I bet an internet security person could also pretty easily see where this thing was trying to phone home.

Install a hidden camera to watch that location to see if anyone replaces that camera. (Put a NWS logo on it.)

Huh, that’s an interesting fact about New Orleans having been a Palantir surveillance lab. How far back does that go? The founder of the Really Really Free Markets, Kristen Brydum, was murdered while visiting N.O. in 2008. Her family was never able to find out details & the murder is still unsolved.

Nobody removed the camera. Rather, “the camera was removed.”
If only there had been a camera watching the camera…

I was gonna say: cover up the camera and stick around for a while. Someone will show up.
