1. DJI drones are very resistant to entering controlled airspace - or
even uncontrolled airport areas. see: "geofencing". This can be
over-ridden by the user (in two levels) - the later assuming that the
operation has been authorized.

2. The ability is not expected to be widely used except where there's a
genuine threat.

3. DJI and other companies welcome it. (Article). Why? They don't
want idiotic users giving the industry a bad name.

But of course you have to paint it as something it isn't. Pathetic par
for the course for RichA.

DJI would be better off resisting every new anti-drone law that comes
down the pipe. But, being Chinese they'd be used to being under control
of a government.


It's a good thing that the US is following other countries and regulate
private use of UAVs. don't wanna have one of those sneaking up me bedroom
window! But what does this have to do with photography?
