I think you are overestimating the sig-int capabilities of the US. Are you saying that the government during peace time can track all drones and drones operators? With all the noise that a city like new York would have I would consider it highly unlikely. But even if it were possible there are ways around it. Also quads are very easy to make.

"moral qualms" is a pretty rude thing to say considering that neither Zuckerberg or musk has ever done anything immoral. It's not like they eat babies. They just run their businesses. I should add that any drama related to data, hate speech, or freedom of speech is inevitable considering the business they are in. Show me a popular social media website that didn't have to deal with those kinds of things. I'm pretty certain even myspace caused a ton of drama.

I still have no idea what right to repair people even want.
