At least they think this is worthy of a recall. I wonder if what they are doing will actually fix the bugs or not.

Considering the press this got, I'd be surprised if there's no one interested in testing all the different models they can get their hands on.

I'll be keeping my nice old truck that can't be hacked.

Now if a 2 ton vehicle capable of 100mph being hacked STILL isn't scary enough for you....

If it isn't illegal why are the FBI looking for the creators of the video... They said they were looking for them yesterday.

@thecreativeone91 The only thing you could charge them with IIRC is FAA violations of objects dropped in flight.
Personally, I'd slap them upside the head for poor control of and unsafe discharge of a firearm.

That Drone guy got arrested. They aren't saying what the charges are yet.

I believe that we do a disservice to everyone if whatever law makes it onto the books isn't technically listed as "droning on and on." Every time someone gets arrested it will be hilarious.
Roger was arrested by village deputy Harold James this morning and was charged with publicly droning on and on.

Ha ha. I kill me.

If this is in the US, they have to tell you before they arrest you, don't they? I trust the government enough to expect trumped up charges to be made, just so they can get a law on the books about drones being weaponized.

Define "have to"? Is there a law on the books that says they have to? Yes. Do judges regularly uphold that? No.
The US has rather a claim to fame for arrests and incarceration without charges, even of minors. NYC has had several deaths around this recently and it is causing quite a stir, kids held for a year without a charge in brutal solitary and adult confinement. The entire detention center in Cuba's purpose is to have no charges with incarceration. It's not just something done in the US. It's something we have a system for doing and are passionate about protecting.
