Do you believe that over 30,000 drones will be buzzing above us by 2020? I dont know about
30,000 but there will certainly be plenty up there thanks to the FAA Re-authorization
Act which President Obama is expected to sign shortly. This act allows the use of commercial
drones by 2015. Oh god that's next year. I think I am completely fine with using drones
for emergency cases. Like in India, there is a start-up that aims on having emergency
drones fly over places hit by natural disasters to better serve the people there. That's genius.
As for monitoring and police usage, it's over-excessive. Instead, replace street camera with better
ones. I would hate to see the blue sky masked by ugly drones.
If the commercial use is the Amazon drones from a while ago, OK I guess. If it's for
spying on citizens, which I am more convinced it is, then let's please vote in someone in
2016 that will revoke this act before technology catches up with it. Please! I understand that
marijuana and gay rights are important issues, but the next election with all the Snowden
stuff coming out, why don't we focus on the community as a whole instead of couple of
groups?
I agree with you, but what do you think about the Amazon drones? Amazon sending up little
flying copters to send you your stuff? I mean they're not military drones, not medical procedures,
but it's basically the first capitalist drones. So im curious to see your opinion on the Amazon
drones and how you view them. Me personally, I don't like having little copters giving
me packages and such and the military drones, that's an incredible amount of drones, and
you know we only hear the military part of it and there are probably drones that give
aid and such. But I mean even the name drone doesn't sound good you know. When you think
of a drone, you think of a worker droning along just doing what it's asked you know.
It's not a positive word and a positive connotation, but to sum up, Im curious about your opinion
on the Amazon drones. And that was a good soundbyte, thanks for recording it. Amazon
drones. Good or bad?
