i think people (and government pushing for drone usage) missing one important aspect - where police/FBI will launch 100 drones, the citizens will launch tens of thousands drones (and if it is outlawed like it is in some states already - it will be Anon's drones) and will observe and record each government/police action. People are worried about government's gigapixel Argus while hundred citizens' drones with 10M cameras can do the same job.
While citizens can claim protection of 4th, the government/police while performing their duties - can't as their actions are allowed to be observed by citizens. It will be a police state for police. Right now a citizen recording police is easily intimidated, like by arresting him and shooting his dog for example. Good luck doing it in case of anonymous drone :)
- genwin 13y agoIt will surely be illegal for the citizens to have their own drones. It will be gov't-only airspace at that altitude. (The people won't object in sufficient numbers either, giving gov't the mandate.) I doubt an Anon could launch or land a drone very many times without getting caught.
