No one probably. Because toy quadcopters don’t have range past your house’s roof.

Are you missing the point of the regulations and guidelines?

The point is that as of now there are no guidelines and regulations - which means no exceptions yet. I think everyone is hoping or assuming that little toy quads won’t count, but until we see the regulations we don’t know what qualifies as a ‘little toy’.
