Should we be more strict about the use of the word 'drone'? Not just here, but everywhere. The vehicle in this article is likely just a quadcopter. The only reason I'm being pedantic is connotation. The word 'drone' is often associated with its military context, which may cause trouble for those pushing for better laws on commercial/recreational unmanned aerial vehicles, autonomous or not. In the minds of those uneducated on the differences of these types of vehicles, having more permissive laws regarding drone operation can sound like a bad thing. Once media and lawmakers start using this jargon regularly, it will be too late to go back and re-educate people on the proper way to classify these types of vehicles.
