Yep. I think a lot of folks would cheer on the idea of having drones monitor the borders for illegals and drug smugglers, as long as they stay within a 20-mile strip. Of course, a year later the feds will say they need to expand that to 50. And a year later, well, we just won't stop all the drugs unless the zone is 200 miles wide. And on and on and on and on...

There's going to be problems as soon as they start getting them over residential areas, from the operators training the cameras on bedroom windows and sundecks, to the things losing their tiny little silicon minds, and doing a kamikaze through somebody's roof.
