Hi This week's poll: Drone land.
With police this week warning a House of Lords committee that off-the-shelf “drones” are being used to harass people, there are growing calls for tighter regulations to prevent criminal use of the technology.
Are these concerns justified? With which of the following statements do you most strongly agree:
- We should be very concerned about the use of the technology to invade peoples’ privacy.
- The main worry is the potential use of the technology to mount terrorist attacks.
- They’re just toys with limited capabilities. It’s a fad that will inevitably pass.
- Though current technologies are limited, capabilities are advancing fast ad regulations should anticipate this.
- We should welcome the drone. The technology can help inspire a new generation of aeronautical engineers.
