That would be a class IV laser and dangerous to eyesight merely from the light scattered off surfaces you point it at. If you point it at a camera and watch what is happening for a while you could get irreversible eye damage. There is nothing special about cameras that makes them vulnerable - if you shine such a laser at a person, you’ll likely burn them too. If the beam shines or bounces into your eye, you will likely burn your retina before you can even blink. This is not a meme or a shitpost, it is very dangerous.

Why not just a baseball bat?

A tip for you all when you need to damage small objects without getting caught: Make the best slingshot you can, train your aim and shooting strength, wait for a heavy rain day and shoot ice cubes at it. The rain will impair visibility and muffle the impact sounds, making it much harder to spot you, and there will be no evidence of what hit the object. Also, there’s nothing illegal about having a slingshot with you. The rain can make it harder to hit the object, but a few attempts will allow to learn compensate for it

I just so happen to be in need of a 1W, 532nm laser pointer! Are the cheapies (under $100) useful laser pointers, or are the more expensive ones a better choice for a productive use of the laser pointer? Links welcome!
