That's moot. How do you define the "fast response" or "lethal force" levels of what's ethical or not here?

- manicdee 7y ago“Lethal force” is its own definition: it is lethal, which means the target dies. “Fast response” is already defined as “fast enough to stop a killer” which implies that these things will be deployed 24/7 waiting to be called into service at a moment’s notice. That means you are setting up expensive infrastructure and a need to justify the ongoing expense which means a police force predisposed to using lethal force for any encounter.
- shmerl 7y agoBeing set up 24/7 is not a requirement for the drone itself, it's something about how it's operated. Seems like your idea is that license would need to specify very narrow requirements for each case.
