Barely related: DJI (the behemoth drone maker) is Chinese-owned. Great cameras and super high-resolution stills and video from very low altitudes.

DJI is now on the US government shit list for various reasons.

If you want a good scare, read all of DJI's End User License Agreements before your new drone can leave the ground.

Massive opportunities for Chinese surveillance, multiplied by the number of people flying these things around.

Wow..
