> What if 10 neighbors collude and start flying drones over my garden and house, only a few meters above ground or my roof, 24/7? What if your neighbours climb on your roof and start banging on your windows at night?
I'm not categorically opposed to the idea of shooting them.
Pour encourager les autres and all that.
Clearly the solution is to obtain anti delivery drone drones and bag all the free stuff that falls out of the sky into your property.
With all the money behind it that’s probably going to a criminally punished similar to hijacking a goods truck n the highway.

> shouldnt be here You'll want to examine this a bit more closely: is the aircraft in a location it should not be? Above your house is likely to be a valid place for a drone, whether you like it or not. Exceptions are for things like airports (other air traffic) and sporting events (large crowds). So when you use a net to capture the drone out of the sky, you are not collecting it from its location of abandonment on…
Surely that must depend on the altitude the drone is flying at. Surely I can use a net to capture a drone flying 8 feet above the ground in my backyard.
But that’s really all assuming; I’m not a lawyer, just a layman with an interest in logical systems.
Edit:
I should add that I generally think about the regulations for small drones (<.55 pounds and some other things) rather than the <55-pound ones because I have looked into flying one. I still think it’s maybe not the best idea to net a 30+ pound piece of flying machinery but the pilot certainly has more things to worry about.
I really hope this type of delivery never catches on... I live in a fairly urban location and still get to do great birdwatching in my backyard. Woodpeckers, hummingbirds, geese and ducks flying over between the various lakes. Losing out on that just so Amazon can make more money (not to mention potentially spy on us even more effectively) would be tragic

And it should be. Vandalism doesn't become OK just because it's being done to drones.

I remember growing up in the rural midwest, people with bitch about Ultra light aircraft. It’s just a glider with an engine strapped to it. They’re super noisy and fly low to the ground (relatively speaking), so they annoy people who like the peace and quiet of the countryside. They’ve been around for a lot longer than drones
It's solved through normal democratic process, I mean discuss with your city/country council, introduce regulations. Not by shooting an aircraft.

> In yet others, they can occupy parts of national parks and have an armed standoff with federal agents, again with no real consequences. What situation are you referencing here? First one that comes to mind is Malheur but one of them was killed and 7 went to prison.
I imagine they're thinking of the Bundy standoff (which was federal BLM land but not a national park) To wit: > The Bundy standoff’s most significant legacy may be the precedent it established: that armed resistance against federal authorities could succeed without serious legal consequences for participants. This outcome has had a profound impact on antigovernment extremist movements, creating what experts describe…
