      @Wagmiman  What’s a camera gonna do? Drones don’t have a license plate. Cars are big and have license plates, and yet they get stolen all the time.

    UAS delivery in populated areas will always be problematic. I love UAS but I also love some privacy at home. It doesn’t mention how far away the drone was, but if this guy hit it, something tells me it was too close.
