Each and every day seems to arrive with news about drones. Less than 10 years ago it was considered the height of conspiracy theory to suggest that unmanned aerial vehicles would be roaming the planet conducting surveillance. Killing people by remote control? Impossible. Flying over the U.S.? Ridiculous.
Not so ridiculous now. All that is left to wonder is how much more the military-industrial complex has in store for humanity. Two recent developments do not bode well. The first is that a South African company intends to imminently deploy riot drones to crush a union protest that is affecting platinum mine production. Anti-protest drones have also been proposed for the United States. Once this gets the green light, human rights will deteriorate exponentially.
The second development is the increasing miniaturization of drone technology. The stated goal is to model the next-generation drones on nature itself - with the same ability to fly in formation, swarm, and attack targets. http://www.activistpost.com/2013/02/insect-drone-swarms-to-be-hidden-in.html

The following infographic does a superlative job of tracing the history of drones in one single, comprehensive image. Drones were introduced much longer ago than you might imagine. We would also point you to our extensive drone coverage which you can find in our drone archives here. The global drone arms race is now upon us.

Anyone is welcome to use their voice here at FREEDOM OR ANARCHY,Campaign of Conscience.THERE IS NO JUSTICE IN AMERICA FOR THOSE WITH OUT MONEY if you seek real change and the truth the first best way is to use the power of the human voice and unite the world in a common cause our own survival I believe that to meet the challenges of our times, human beings will have to develop a greater sense of universal responsibility. Each of us must learn to work not just for oneself, ones own family or ones nation, but for the benefit of all humankind. Universal responsibility is the key to human survival. It is the best foundation for world peace,“Never be afraid to raise your voice for honesty and truth and compassion against injustice and lying and greed. If people all over the world...would do this, it would change the earth.” Love and Peace to you all stand free and your ground feed another if you can let us the free call it LAWFUL REBELLION standing for what is right
