Interesting example: there's currently a major squabble in the British gambling industry over the use of drones to provide low-latency streams of horse racing. Off-track betting is legal here, as is in-play betting - you can place a bet right until the winning horse crosses the line. The latency for a typical satellite broadcast is about 10 seconds, so several gambling syndicates operate their own drones to provide a private low-latency stream, thereby gaining a huge advantage on in-play betting. The drones are being flown legally in uncontrolled airspace, so there racetracks are at a loss as to how to respond. https://www.theguardian.com/sport/blog/2019/jan/16/talking-horses-racecourses-vow-to-ban-drone-giving-punters-an-edge-horse-racing-tips https://www.theguardian.com/sport/blog/2019/jan/16/talking-h... https://www.racingpost.com/news/open-skies-authority-says-nothing-to-stop-drones-being-flown-near-racecourses/364002 https://www.racingpost.com/news/open-skies-authority-says-no...
