"...But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security..."

TECH WATCH - MICRO 'mosquito' DRONES CAN SPY ON YOU


Thought you would find this technology interesting (scary)!



Is this a mosquito? No.  It's an insect spy drone for urban areas, already in production, funded by the US Government. It can be remotely controlled and is equipped with a camera and a microphone.  It can land on you, and it may have the potential to take a DNA sample or leave RFID tracking nanotechnology on your skin. It can fly through an open window, or it can attach to your clothing until you take it in your home.  Given their propensity to request macro-sized drones for surveillance, one is left with little doubt that police and military may look into these gadgets next

But we were worried about West Nile virus….ya right….
