Feds Create #Drone #NoFlyZone That Would Stop People Filming #ICE

The #FAA put a drone no fly zone within 3,000 feet of “DHS facilities & mobile assets,” according to a notice to airmen posted by the gov. The no fly zone is the same type that the US uses to restrict consumer #drones over military bases & Dept of Energy (DOE) research centers & facilities. The order appears to attempt to criminalize the use of drones to film ICE & #DHS employees who are detaining people

"NSW town of Moree is participating in an “Australian-first” police drone trial.

NSW Police Aviation Command ( #POLAIR) has stationed two drones in #Moree, to be remotely operated from Bankstown Airport, for proactive aerial surveillance. The six-month trial will see the drones used as “eyes in the skies” to assist first-response police officers."

Dronefall — Fundraising for the downing of 5000 Russian reconnaissance UAVs

Our goal — is to down Russian percussion and reconnaissance UAVs. And to do it not with million-dollar missiles, but by deploying special covering groups.
