Eric Schmidt says drones should be banned by international treaties.
Reasons?
- Terrorists (and the Reds under the bed)
- Democratising war (funny, you’d need weapons so is Eric banning guns?)
- Harassment and Spying of neighbours (like Google Earth, Plus, Maps)
The thing is, Eric, drones are not new. People have been fostering around with remote controlled unmanned vehicles for years. It would be a shame if people just flew them over your back yard in response to your own laissez-faire attitude to privacy.
