We've seen that drone advertising has now officially become a thing with this Candy Crush bollocks. How easy would it be to wreak havoc on them?
FYI: Drone jammers are not legal in the US per FCC regulations. "The use of "cell jammers" or similar devices designed to intentionally block, jam, or interfere with authorized radio communications (signal blockers, GPS jammers, or text stoppers, etc.) is a violation of federal law.
I'm going to lazily repost something I commented that has my thoughts on the matter:
How difficult would it be to destroy covertly? I’ve got a drone, and it’s quite a feeble being. Obviously these things would be a lot bigger than my little camera drone, but it really can’t take a whole lot, surely? My drones rotors sometimes get stuck when I land it in grass that’s over a few inches long. Surely that means a sturdy piece of string could tangle up those advertiser drones.
How surveilled are they? How does one even surveill something so high in the sky in pitch blackness? How hard would they investigate the destruction? It would be a very fucking expensive thing, if even one drone was destroyed. One drone would probably fly into the rest though and then you got mega damage bucks on your hands…
What is the best method of destroying them, do you think? Send up your own drone and drop a bunch of netting over a section? Perhaps having your own drone would be too traceable. Maybe it wouldn’t if it was a home built one though. No trackers that feed info back to a company like MAVIC, for example.
Not sure if they're still vulnerable but an awesome security researcher made a zombie drone that flys around taking control of others
I can't imagine that they have good security. A virus is way simpler than all this other stuff
Also I'm just saying, these drones clearly have Red LEDs co if yoy were to take them over you could make a massive hammer and sickle appear over the city (or a bear)
