Yes, privacy is all but gone and that undermines most of the civil, political and human rights for which privacy has been the foundation, but I see the mass commodification of these technologies as challenging security threats.<br /><br />Technology to autonomously follow a moving target with onboard systems that enable a camera to stabilize, aim and focus on that target present a powerful opportunity for those who would do us harm.<br /><br />Suddenly we're going to need jammers, devices that can electronically scramble these onboard systems and crash these drones. It becomes a consumer arms race with breakthroughs spawning counter-technologies in which you can have just as much security as you can afford. <br /><br />Add to this GPS navigation systems (already integrated in this technology) and you have small, cheap and yet effective cruise missiles. <br /><br />I saw this coming a few years ago but I am astonished it reached consumer markets quite so quickly.The Mound of Soundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09023839743772372922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-12208451088569989622015-01-10T08:42:51.181-08:002015-01-10T08:42:51.181-08:00We live in a world where privacy is becoming a thi...We live in a world where privacy is becoming a thing of the past, Mound.Owen Grayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06464860078574618579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-37528884602982614962015-01-09T21:26:23.585-08:002015-01-09T21:26:23.585-08:00Hi, Toby.

If the technology in this consumer drone can stabilize, aim and focus the Go-Pro camera, it could easily be adapted to sight, train and fire a gun. For the consumer market this is being deployed on a relatively low-cost quad-copter with limited range and flight duraction but it could be as easily used on a longer-duration and range conventional wing drone with better loiter and lift capability.<br /><br />I saw this coming a few years ago when US forces in Afghanistan began using small, hand-launched but high-tech drones. At the time I realized they were letting the Genie out of the bottle and it wouldn't be long before that same technology became a low-cost civilian-sector commodity. From there it drops right into the laps of the bad guys who would harness its ability to their own sinister purposes.The Mound of Soundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09023839743772372922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-74628465609337277992015-01-09T19:56:10.535-08:002015-01-09T19:56:10.535-08:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06955538122800539630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-36332167457258998922015-01-09T19:49:55.139-08:002015-01-09T19:49:55.139-08:00Any word on the danger of the blades?
