Hate the drones (one was sent to check me out while sunbathing on a beach, ugh), went to an astronomy lecture recently and was horrified by a picture showing the Earth covered in satellites -- it looked like the Covid virus! I see all of this spying through mechanical devices as an extension of the male entitlement that they get to do and have access to whatever they want, with zero concern for how it affects anyone or anything else. Same for those massive radio collars scientists have been putting on cougars and jaguars. Just wrong.

They really do sound like extremely loud, sinister mosquitos. I'm not even sensitive to that kind of noise but they make me feel nervous.

It must be terrible for sea creatures that use sonar, their experience of sound is already beyond what we can imagine.

Might not be possible. I think in the US they're under the same category as aircraft. You can't interfere with them at all, even lasers will land you a hefty fine. You're supposed to just call the authorities, who will do probably nothing.

It's a shame because drones are cool, but a lot of people are assholes and do not respect others' privacy at all with them.
