"protesters invest research funds in drone smashing brick technology"

$5 investment in a potato canon = drone down

Just look at the Indian electrical grid system. The drone wouldn't be able to navigate through all those cris-crossing wires everywhere.

I realize that the military has been arming drones since before I even understood the concept, but I am not sure how I feel about weaponizing (and pepper spray is a weapon) drones for use against civilian mobs.

with the level of surveillance some places have, and some people identify themselves breaking the law, all they need to do is freeze some credit cards and bank accounts

Authorities freak out about people flying small drones and want to ban them in case they accidently damage people or property. Meanwhile they are equipping their own drones with weaponry designed to intentionally physically harm people. Funny how life works.

So, India just shut down 64 million phone customers ti try to curb protests.

Probably not the whole story, I would imagine they are tracking people through their phone locations.

Why would the need and how could a whole city use just 10 weapons?



edit: and when I say ten, I am referring to a guessed budget, they could probably hire ten new officers to pepper spray the crowd for that money.

If these guy's can take out a multirotor I'm sure the people of India will find a way.
