Seriously... Why bother thinking about the importance of what was being argued/judged? Lets hang our hats on corporate entities and pretend that either of them care about us. If these were two much smaller companies, the importance would be the same...
The Intelligence agencies were asking for the same powers they demanded after 9-11 prior to the attack. There is nothing new about this. The Church Committee made the overstepping of surveillance evident in the 70's. The times are not a changing. The bogey men are.. It used to be big bad Russia, Now it is the unknown faceless enemy that hates our freedoms. Similar propaganda for a newer generation.
Commercial flights can also get permissions to fly in places outside of designated areas. Places such as: near an airport, along a rail corridor, at a constructions site, in a class B airspace. etc. I agree with most of what you are saying though.
They are beginning to take safety into consideration and not just weight. Things like a parachute, or redundant GPS/Compass etc.will make a difference then, where a lighter vehicle was considered safe because it had less weight vs safety systems built into the unit.
Some people have courses in Drones, aeronautics, electrical engineering, coding. Others work on larger g4roup projects such as developing autonomy systems for things like CV, Deep Learning etc.
Better question is: Why do you think that there is no reason in a university to fly a drone that is appropriate? People had the same insipid questions and comments about computing/computers when it was a new field.
MS will sell direct access to the computer desktop level to advertisers. Not being successful as a business doesn't mean they aren't peddling your information. They have also been caught selling information on customers directly to political groups and they were fined for it. MS is not seeking to bring you services, they are seeking to monetize whatever they can to offset the fact that Windows and Office sales are being eaten as fewer people rely on office files to do everything.
The entire first page of Google results is not dominated by paid advertisers masquerading as legit 'best possible results for your query'. This is very different from Google. In fact that is why it is so successful as a search engine. People use it because it returns functional results. If Bing were better or duck duck go, then people would head there to search instead of Google.
Why not set up a simpler gps tracking system and have them tracked using a variation of gps/basestation corrections and wireless ap connections? If they are robots they will have both.
Without gps, Lidar would work, radar with the right chips can work, with a camera or stereo camera can work. The computational limits were resolved with newer hardware such as the Jetson TX1.
Some jobs aren't afforded the luxury of "it was a weekend, I don't do weekends" as a response to certain work emergencies. I can't even imagine a job that I would be so casual about that the thought of accidentally seeing a work email is the source of my worries. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying you're wrong, perhaps I should switch career fields.
I suppose you could easily have a calendar device a contacts gadget and a portable email system and a phone. After all, what is the possible advantage of centralizing these vastly different data systems into one piece of hardware?
The issue with PC's for gaming is the fact that the average user is so riddled and hobbled with spyware or the three anti virus applications running in tandem, that gaming is not an option. Consoles were going to bring no support necessary gaming to the masses.
The FBI takes their torture outside of the United States so the American citizens who have their rights trampled do not have recourse with due process. They are torturing US citizens without any accountability. But you are right the FBI isn't a carbon copy of the SS. Are you suggesting that the FBI are fine, they aren't abusing rights or citizens and are fully accountable legal task force within the US? Lying about things such as stopping terror plots and getting caught aren't the actions of well intended police forces.
Using a stingray isn't considered observing a public space. It is not the same as a wiretap, in that it pulls also in thousands of innocent bystanders information in the process. You can't put GPS on a car without a warrant, they are essentially doing this in a plane and tracking thousands of innocents and therefore conducting illegal searches.
They are circling cities for hours on end with unwarranted stingrays, collecting tens of thousands of innocent civilians data and communications in the process isn't legal whether in a car in a boat or a plane. That is only one set of sensors they are using in these aircraft while circling cities with unregistered (unrecorded flights). Take an SDR radio tune into ADS-B and start plotting the flights. You'l see them circling above LA or NY or wherever they feel like flying, without reasonable suspicion for the masses they are surveying.
If he did nothing wrong then why the protests marching to the parliament buildings in Iceland? He resigned because he was caught funneling money to protect investors of the failed banks to which he was hiding his involvement with. If he could have not resigned he would not have resigned.

In China they do not have unions and or nearly the same set of safety guidelines protecting the workers.
Nothing started with Lincoln. Maybe applying surveillance to telegrams was a modernized twist, this goes back as far as power struggles in history.

A lack of GPS is a big deal on a drone for many purposes.

Why can't his response be earnest? Linux is a cancer.

At least it didn't automatically uninstall the weather system application.

That is not at all what this is for. A downward facing camera without a gimbal is going to be peering in windows exactly how? Flying sideways?

Luckily for us all Hancock wasn't a total pussy, was a smuggler and was already well distrusted by the British well before he signed the declaration.
The world needs less cowards like you.

Maybe you shouldn't have been simple enough to think that somehow Iceland or the US were above reproach. They just handle the news better.
