How About Using a Different Type of Grass Seed to Spell Out a Message to the Cops in Your Lawn?

Because drones monitoring everything that you are doing on your property are on the way to an airspace over you.

I imagine that there will be considerable interest in building jammers.

    Copseyes, Finest observer drones for law compliance.


    We have seen this one coming for a while. Science fiction has too, in all cases it was the Orwellian stuff.

  3. Hey, the Suffolk County (NY) PD uses aircraft already. Being we have 2 municipal airports here (Islip/MacArthur and Republic Field) ain't nobody notices yet another single engine Cessna or Piper flying around or another Bell Jet Ranger. They been watching us for years.

  4. Fixer, difference is the UAS gives cheap persistent surveillance. One plane up for an hour would pay for several drones up for several days, I bet.

    My guess is it won't be long before they see them as revenue tools and use them for speed enforcement.

    Lots of timing lines on the interstate near me, but I think I may have seen a plane doing speed once in 6 years.

  5. Dave, I got s speeding ticket from the Chippies in the late `80s based on some clown timing me from his Cessna.

  6. XR ... Dave - The first mission of the "air precinct" was traffic enforcement. That was in 1975. Now they watch everything. From what I hear (from a buddy I went to high school with and is now a Suffolk cop), they now have infrared sensors on the aircraft to look for pot growers and radiation sensors to look for terrorist dirty bombs. They'd probably know if you farted sideways in your own house at this point.
