Naturally some gov't turd biscuit eatin piece of shit will look into it and find a way to ruin a mans fun and hard work.

Having said that, I am almost universally against drones and drone usage.
Have always felt the stunning views of being a pilot were reserved for those few who have made the effort to be up there.

If you ain't riskin the biscuits, you don't deserve the view!
(Yes I'm aware Tucker Gott has adopted that as his company name, no he didn't invent it....)

Sadly Benry that is the way of the evolving culture, with all the virtual reality, now everything is just videos as experience... no actual experience required.. reminds me of a movie quote from the 1980's :
Replace "tevevision" with video

The battle for the mind of North America will be fought in the video arena -- the videodrome.
The television screen is the retina of the mind's eye.
Therefore the television screen is part of the physical structure of the brain.
Therefore whatever appears on the television screen emerges as raw experience for those who watch it. Therefore television is reality, and reality is less than television.

(Brian O'Blivion) (Videodrome 1983)

No kidding, watch liveleak sometime. Saw a video in Pakistan where a teenage boy starts floundering in a lake 10 feet from shore (people cant swim in other countries?) Anyway theres 50 useless carbon masses watching as the family wails, they are ALL filming this boy drown, not one jumps in to help, hell there was enough of them to make a human bridge, but nope....he died, 10 feet from shore.
Now this video brings up many many other questions about the "human condition" but for my point, they thought it important enough to film, just not important enough to save him.

Link to where it was on TV the other week.
There is a short section near the end showing a bloke eat a sausage in a sauna. That was a few years ago when he sent a drone to Bunnings hardware to get a snack. I think he got a hefty fine for that.
