    That's a seriously irritating article. I feel like they are talking to 5 yo's. fwiw, I know I've read where in Syria, one side was using cheap drones to drop C4 on soldiers. It's amazing we haven't had a swarm attack somewhere. And there is another story where some Australian decided to try and build a cruise missile with nothing but off the shelf components. I think he got it to significant range, GPS navigation, and could carry a "payload" of something like 100 Kg. Yeah, genie is out of the bottle.

      The hardware has obviously existed for a few decades, at least. I remember a regular column in Byte back in the '80s, Ciarcia's Circuit Cellar, in which Steve Ciarcia built all manner of interesting gadgets, publishing the circuit diagrams. Building something like a remote-controlled machine gun would have been simple for him.

        My point is that there is zero information in it. It's like they are having a conversation with themselves.
