It's not just Hollywood making use of this technology, police departments across the US are receiving from the federal government 30,000 drones over the course of the next couple of years. Pretty soon cops from Buffalo to Burbank will be able to keep watch on the average citizen to make sure he isn't 'up to something', errr, I mean to 'keep him safe'. Yes, that's what I mean. Just like having a big brother in the sky watching over me. Gotta run, I'm late for my 6 minute hate. Toodles!
