Flock is best known for the roadside cameras now operating in more than 6,000 US communities. But the company is increasingly betting on drones that can be...
Privacy groups warn that flying plate readers could expand surveillance far beyond roadside cameras.
Eeh, fair enough I suppose. Basically optical fiber is impractical for police use, but these drones are a great use case for frequency hopping radios like what’s used in Ukraine.
Unfortunately, that means the most likely counter to these available to the average person is going to be shotguns and flying other drones into them.
My main irritation that spurred the comment you replied to is in response to “heheheh drone interception is so easy, I personally invented 500 techniques.”
I’m not a drone expert. Maybe you are. But that person clearly is not.
Oh no for sure, that guy’s talking nonsense. You can build a directed and relatively quite high power microwave antenna at home no problem - but building an n-tron (I’ll be fucked if I can remember which type of ‘-tron’ it is, I confess. Gravitron?) with enough power to take out a drone from more than a few meters away is well beyond what’s feasible to construct by yourself at home.
