There's a protest going on at the moment over a Freeway
Extension in my city. Protesters are chaining themselves to
earthmoving equipment and gates as a way of impeding work
on
the project. It takes the police a considerable amount of
time
and aggravation to cut them free.
My service
would be to hire out decoy equipment to be
parked on
site in such a manner that, after the protesters are securely
fastened, the real equipment can get past them to start the
project. The units don't have to function so don't require
engines etc as they could be towed into position.

You've got the wrong end of the globe there Old Chap. It's
going to be 41C today. (No fire ants required). |

Just the two-metre diameter convex lens, then ... |

Ah yes, I was forgetting Australia's perverse insistence on having its seasons exactly 180° out of sync. It's not big, and it's not clever. |

Love this idea, I'd like to see it carried a step further. |

Put out fake stories to occupy the self appointed ruling
class, finger
wagging morality police. |

"Republicans declare that homeless puppy meat is a
valuable protein source that can be sold to the poor for
inflated prices to enhance the bank accounts of the rich." |

Give 'em something to live for and keep 'em busy so
they're out of the way while the adults go about the day to
day work of running a civilization. |
