- shadowgovt 4y agoOf what kind? Because the next thing that happens is a lawsuit slapped on your desk by a very rich company for property destruction. They have a vested interest in protecting not only the property but also the business model so they will use the law to maximize punishment for such behavior. And the downside to shooting down a drone is the telemetry it collects makes it pretty easy to prove the shooter is the aggressor and Amazon's following all relevant local laws. Going on the legal offensive and putting them in the position to prove they're doing no harm (including a discovery process to confirm their telemetry isn't gamed or flawed) is a much better tactic. Still a legal uphill battle, but one you're signing yourself up for anyway if you take a gun to an Amazon drone. At least this way it's on your terms, not theirs.
- xwdv 4y agoLet him go to prison, it will be a good example for people who think they have a right to shoot down drones just trying to deliver a package to a destination.
- recursive 4y agoYeah, let me go to prison. I mean they're not "just" trying to deliver a package. They're doing it close enough to my land where I could land a shot. In the interest of full disclosure, I'm not going to do it. I don't have a gun, a bow, or more than a tiny sliver of a yard. But still, I kind of hope someone does it just so I can follow the case.
