Why's the drone required?

It's not but I'm sure some very smart business person knew Mike Lindell was gullible and would fall for something crazy like this. A box in the corner doesn't make for good TV. Drones flying around sure does.

  Why would election centers allow a box to be kept in the room? What might work better is people walking around with a backpack wearing Pineapple. https://youtu.be/EbetD2LMbeQ https://youtu.be/EbetD2LMbeQ

    Suppose you do capture what you are looking for. How would you present the information to courts when you illegally captured the information.

  Why drones? was my first thought as well. I think your answer is as good as any. Mike Lindell is an idiot.

    Why not drones? Sure, you could do exactly the same thing with a sniffer app on a normal phone, but drones sell better, at least for this ridiculous grift.

  Even better when you label the "wifi montiroing device" as "WMD" and strap it to a drone. Also, why do I even know this? What is life anymore? Haha.

I bet they are using crypto and AI, too, for the cyber. It's buzzwords all the way down. Grifters gonna grift...

>> Why's the drone required? Id assume its illegal to put a sniffer into a polling place. What makes the plan stupid is believing you can capture a supposedly covert intermittent low energy signal using a drone that can only hover about 10 minutes at a time.

Standing next to a building doesn't sound as good, marketing. Stuff like this actually makes me really sad because people should not really be this gullible.

It isn't, really. My impression is that anyone could just sit in a parked vehicle with one of these and track what info is available. But they're not flashy enough by themselves. The drones are the sizzle that sells the steak.

A lot of local election laws prohibit electioneering or any kind of campaigning or observation within X number of feet of a polling place. I'm guessing putting a drone a hundred feet or so above a polling place somehow allows line of sight while still staying out of the restricted zone?
