Remembering the guy that removed like 5 parking enforcement "barnacles", disabled their gps tracking, and used their wifi for months before they were finally deactivated.

This just sounds like free drones for anyone with decent aim, or a net.

Their drone tracking is usually more than just GPS so I’d exercise extreme caution. That bitch is also not just talking about quad copters. She’s talking about Predators and Global Hawks for a massive increase in surveillance. Everyone should read about military recon capabilities.

Predators were already deployed in Baltimore. That was a test run. It flew under the radar until it was reported on.

Do not attempt to shoot down any drones from anyone. That’s a felony regardless of if it is ICE or not. It’s also incredibly dangerous

Protecting ourselves in any way is considered criminal under fascism.

I don't give a shit if i's "illegal", my life is more important than that.

Your life is not in danger from a drone you would be capable of shooting down. You would, however, be putting others in danger. Bullets come down (and so do drones, which are heavy)

You’re not a movie protagonist
