Silly fat endangered tax-paying independent capitalists. The technology you create and manage is is for GOVERNMENT, not for you.

I’d say screw them and let them try to stop it. They start shooting them down, that might get the natives restless.

Under what authority? The FAA doesn’t own the skies. Do I need their permission to fly a kite? An RC plane? A hobby rocket? why should someone have to ask the government for permission to do something this harmless?

A wonk probably wrote a memo defining it as “Commercial Air Transport”.

I wonder how long it took for the FAA to approve of various government entities using drones to keep us in check. 5..., 10 seconds..., a full minute?

If they are restricting it in the name of ‘terrorism’ it only means:
