Congress Calls for Accelerated Use of Drones in U.S, page 2

Is there information on whether the areas of the six test ranges has been estalished?

There are already military/alphabet agency UAVs/drones flying over areas of the US.

I recall an announcement from a police department in Texas:

(CONROE, Texas) -- A local police force north of Houston is about to become the first in Texas and one of the first in the nation to deploy an unmanned drone for police work, and this one could someday carry weapons.

You will notice it says, the Texas department is only "one" of the first in the nation to deploy drones. This of course implies the legal and legitmate use by police agencies, not as Orwellian spy machines for the alphabetters...

The legitimate use of UAVs and or drones by police agencies, e.g. the search for terrorist, drugs and illegal aliens would not be a problem.

Unfortunately anyone who read 1984 could certainly see how the use of these could be compromised by the alphabet agencies.



A map of the US with an overlay of the 'test ranges' could certainly disclose a lot about the intent of these bases.

Fiction Becomes Fact ? The Birth of Skynet ? Once A.I. Technology outpaces Human Command and Control Systems , Theoretically Machines could Overide their initial Programming and become Rogues............Hmm.....

Thats the way its going....

scenario: A new computer game comes out with PS4's release.

Players MUST be logged online to play. Called "Drone Wars"....you pilot a primitive version of Skynets aerial drones. In the "game" as you take off, a REAL drone takes off from an aircraft carrier in the Persian Gulf.

Needles to say the real life link is never made public.

Your target is "terrorist", well according to the gamer, anyone that he chooses fit outside of his mission requirements as the gamer is in control.

Should the gamer turn the game off or disrupt it for whatever reason the drone goes automatically into a holding pattern until another "gamer" takes his place online and continues on with the mission.

All the while, the A.I systems withi the drone learn human behavior both those of the targets and those controlling the drones, mapping out for themselves and their Central Computers how Humans behave.

Far fetched...maybe, but not unrealistic at all. And could easily I beleive be put into place.

If the military built cheap disposable drones with weaponary it would be a gamers dream come true as it would be the military's also.

FAA: Look For 30,000 Drones To Fill American Skies By The End Of The Decade

By 2020 30,000 do we rally need that? For what monitoring us? Well, of course and...

Ah, the drone market $$$.

According to some estimates, the commercial drone market in the United States could be worth hundreds of millions of dollars once the FAA clears their use.
