Shoot the damn drones done
I am excited to see what EU is going to do about this.
- If how governments dealt with climate activists temporarily blocking single flights is anything to go by I expect no less than full mobilization of the troops. But it‘s just foreign governments waging war and committing terrorist attacks so a few strict words have to do.
  
  Hince the obvious irony in my sentence 😂
- You're excited to see nothing?
- Can we interest you in watching paint dry? It's as action packed as the EU defending itself.
- First course of action: make it even more difficult to fly a drone privately.
  The EU has the harshest laws already. Every fucking tree is a nature reserve where you're not allowed to fly. Water? Fuck your drone. Anything remotely interesting? You better not take off with that drone!
  Being a photographer in Germany blows.
A failure of preemptive preparation. We've seen how central drones have become in Ukraine, and we've seen drones over infrastructure for a long time.
Imagine if we already had law and policy changes and equipment. If, on sighting, they'd launch a transponder localization immediately.
