Of course its illegal everywhere to kill people with chainsaws.

Even Texas? (yes I know, I deserve to be downvoted, guilty pleasure)

Depends on if they are looking at you threateningly...

Sorry, but you could have made your point in a more hackerish way by saying that the Islamic State is looking into using off the shelf drones to widely distribute Cesium 137 dust harvested from Medical X ray equipment. A devout martyr would have no issue with preparing the Cesium and assembling the device.

Such a weapon would cause great economic damage if used in an urban area, as the city would have to be evacuated until a thorough and expensive clean up was completed by thousands of workers in bunny hazmat suits.

I seriously want to start a drone defense company.

Disney are apparently using drones to combat paparazzi drones when filming Star Wars VIII: http://consequenceofsound.net/2016/02/drones-are-patrolling-...

Best options are probably Thors, missle turrets, photon cannons or void rays. Eventually war will be teenagers sitting at computers moving swarms of autonomous machines on a virtual map, and South Korea will take over the world.

DoD won't appreciate the competition :-)

DoD outsources most a lot of that work. Though, they'd probably prefer a machine gun.

Naming inspiration: Department of Drones

Defending people from drones?

Or using drones to defend people?

(Or both?)

I like the framing you've used there, but mostly military drones are used to "attack" people

both but more the former
