Topic | I think drones should be banned from the public |
GreenKnight127 09/20/25 9:04:26 AM #7: | I understand you, to a point. Like someone else said, there IS a huge difference between military drones....and commercial toy drones. But yes, even the toy drones can be used in dark ways. The technology has gotten so good, even those small drones that can fit in your hand can be equipped with HD 4K cameras. A lot of cities DO have regulations on them. Some guys will fly them over beaches to creep on women sunbathing. Some people will use them to look in people's windows. Scope out potential break-ins and theft. It's also a general invasion of privacy for a lot of people. If I looked out my bedroom window and saw a small drone just hovering there, I would assume someone is stalking me. Not cool. Also, I'm intelligent and creative enough to immediately think of SEVERAL ways even toy drones could be weaponized if a person was desperate or sick enough. Imagine some guy strapping a dirty syringe to the front of a tiny drone and flying it into people at an amusement park or something. [shudders]. I wouldnt put that kinda shit past anyone in 2025. The world is fuckt. But I'd like to believe MOST people who play with drones, are doing it for casual fun. Or they live in rural areas and want to make artistic panoramic videos for their youtube channel. There are a LOT of channels out there of dudes just flying over trees and mountains, and they look incredible. Plus, film-making in general. More and more Hollywood movies are using drones for cinematography. No matter what it is......there will always be people who use things for good and for bad. Because we are an insane species that I constantly question the purpose of. [sigh] --- Different opinions: Insightful to the strong - Inciteful to the weak ... Copied to Clipboard! |
