They get a signal today so they must have an error-correction protocol sufficient to the task. So the answer is: encrypt the payload first, then error-correct it, and then transmit. And remember that the value is the real-time viewing of the video to see where the drone is heading. So the encryption doesn't have to be brilliant, leading edge stuff like Blowfish or even AES, it just has to be difficult enough to crack that the, uh, payload is delivered before the bad guys can decrypt the stream and view it.
Is this good enough?

Clever sig temporarily out of service. 1994.01.01
I'm not so sure. How much gee-whiz collaborative filtering whiz-bang technology does one need to predict that a mention in Slashdot will produce an attack and outage? I bet their research shows Slashdotting in the top-10 attacks.
I am supposed to be reassured because a few undergrads with time to kill were unable to read a couple of disks? What exactly does this say about someone well-funded and determined?
Physical destruction is your friend. Get out a hammer and a butane torch.
My PalmPilot did this routinely in 1998. A client with CPU, display, and storage.
My PalmPilot would synchronize this information with a PC. A server.
I kept my various lists on it.
Filing date is 2001.
I'm sure I could find earlier examples dating back to the 1970s.
Why is this hard? And why did the Patent Office accept this filing?
Since they seem to be providing valid responses (as suggested in the article), it must be some traffic data that they are collecting. They now have a long list of valid IP addresses with data, consider it a list of targets. They also have some first-hand data on the most popular websites which they could sell to advertisers ("Are you sure you're getting the right billing from your advertising agents?"). It could also have been a set-up - benign now but gearing up to start attacking later. I hate to mention it, but they could have been testing a cyberattack technique and had the bad luck to get caught (the Manchurian DNS server).
Anybody study the metric system?
135 kilograms is not 500 pounds, it's only about 300 pounds.
Unless the author is on a larger planet and really meant poundals.
Next week's lesson: how to convert drams to hogsheads.
I have a simpler proof that I have noted in the margin.
Encrypt the message using ROT-13 to produce message prime.
For added safety, encrypt message prime with ROT-13 to produce message double-prime.
Message double-prime is clearly [sic] encrypted because it has had encryption method ROT-13 applied twice.
The word Lego is a trademark and must be used as an adjective. Thus the "plural of Lego[sic]" is "Lego plastic doodads".

IANAL but I play one on Slashdot.
It all depends on the problem you're trying to solve. For maximum gas mileage, get a bicycle. For good mileage, take the bus. If, however, you need a vehicle that can take the Boy Scouts camping or skiing on weekends and still get reasonable gas mileage for a daily commute in the city, a Ford Escape Hybrid can make sense. If you're looking for a sedan-like vehicle that produces geographically dispersed pollution, a plug-in variant of a Toyota Prius can make sense. If you own your vehicles for ten years (to amortize the purchase delta), you can help reduce the amount of oil imported or drilled with a hybrid while driving (sorry) the demand for more efficient vehicles. If you're rich, you can indulge yourself. Or maybe all you want is a car with the cute hybrid logo on the back to impress the chicks. We all make choices. Be wise.
Two points.
(1) the sale of PCD included selling the employees. PCD lay-offs will appear as Lenovo actions.
(2) PCs are manufactured outside Europe (Mexico, China, etc.).
The loss of however many jobs is still unfortunate.
Chernobyl was indeed moderated by graphite, but the graphite was quite solid until the unfortunate incident. (insert burst of satire particles here) For history buffs, Enrico Fermi used graphite in his first reactor under the stands of the stadium at the University of Chicago. Quite stable, but very messy.

It's the only choice left.
