- sspencer 18y agoIf you live in NYC, every airplane looks like a problem. Or at least, I imagine that is the fucked up rationale behind that particular kill switch. While it could conceivably drop a hijacked plane before it nails a building, I can't help but wonder how long it will take before some clever antagonists start broadcasting kill signals to drop the planes remotely. Why dirty your hands in a messy hijacking when you can just press a button from a rooftop adjacent to an airport?
