Or, well, the tasers that work so well on pods and borgs can also be a threat? It's more that this proposed Drone Lab can make hunter-killer ordinance if left to its devices; what can stop someone with the power of X on their side?
It's snappy: the use of a drone is tied to a pair of VR glasses or pod, right? Would there be a way to add back the proposed fuel system to keep drones on a charge? Let taser shots do some damage and drain some battery while leaving more traditional, robuster options such as "beat up the nerd in the goofy glasses" or "dogfight the drone with my equally cool pod" just as viable.
In addition, where the heck would we be gathering materials for this kind of research anyway? I like the idea of finally bringing stuff back from busted up scrap, but would we scan the screens and the circuits? Get some sort of ye-olde Electronics-style of plugging ye-olde Electronics components into a board to make a blueprint for that HK disruptor?
Just more questions than answers.
