Poor analogy. One is purposely under control, and the other is not. However, the jamming technique is a good one, although it may be illegal. I believe there may be systems that shoot nets. Anything that gums up a propeller would be useful. Minimize damage to the drone, yet can obtain possession perhaps, and call police or whoever, to resolve.

“Poor analogy. One is purposely under control, and the other is not.”

We dont know that for certain. She even said herself she didn’t know if it was a gust of wind, or if they lost control of it.

She just didn’t care to get an answer.

I do potentially see a federal standard that is built into future drones where anyone can put a “beacon” device on their property that sends out a low-powered signal (similar to what kids Walkie-Talkies put out) that will signal to the drone’s on-board controls to override any human instructions and cause it to fly back in the opposite direction safely or that will instruct the camera to go into B/W ultra low-res mode, making any images useless.
