@eff@mastodon.social let the gun rights pass so everyone can take the drones down. Seriously though it's a problem.

"Support from the air: #drones open up completely new perspectives for the NRW #police
From 2021, the North Rhine-Westphalian police will initially be equipped with 76 drones in the areas of forensic investigation centres, the crime scene surveying group of the #State #Office of #Criminal #Investigation and the riot police. In a next step, a further 30 drones will be procured for the #traffic #accident #investigation #teams.

IIRC there is at least one recorded case of a microlight being shot down by an annoyed nude sunbather. In south Africa, IIRC, probably 1990-ish.
@eff@mastodon.social This one ends with anonymous drones shooting down the official government ones. That in turn will become a problem that the government will "Crack down on any day now!" .... "any day now" ....

Didn't we see this science fiction movie? Can't remember how it ended.

Years ago when I worked in Champaign-Urbana, the local cops routinely reported "deer sightings" over police radio to alert other officers of female students sunbathing.
