How long until the government is using this kind of technology to "police" it's own citizens?
Imagine thousands of these things, perhaps automated to some degree, and with AI programs based on the ethics of the Patriot Act, cruising US airspace and surveilling the very citizens they were ostensibly meant to protect.
I can see it now... A turban wearing family man exiting a shop in downtown LA mistaken for a terrorist or a bunch of school kids wearing anti government t-shirts at a NY demonstration summarily obliterated by computer launched side winders.
