Yep, I can see it now, these guys decided there's too many people so now we all have to be on the lookout for hunter killer drones. Only the paranoid will survive. As they say back at the 'ol nuthouse, just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you.

Ha ha, definitely worthy of some post Apocalyptic Big Brother movie scene.... dozens and dozens of these little drones with cameras tracking John Conner and feeding the information to various Terminators attempting to capture/kill him. Maybe the coming truth will not be stranger than this fiction.

Oh, it gets worse... They've almost come up with a practical invisibility screen. It costs too much and is too heavy now, but it won't take long before they can make them cheaper and small enough to mount on one of these little choppers. Univac took up a 2 story building the size of a football field, but today a wristwatch has more computing power than thousands Univacs. The hard part is making it work to begin with. Everything after that is just refinement.
While I like this for the military aspect, I am NOT looking forward to the speed traps of the future. We're gonna need a whole new kind of police detection system. With one of these invisibility screens, any section of road is suspect. Our only hope at that point will be someone hitting a screened police car parked on the shoulder because they had to get off the road, and you know how people do that... they put on their signal and start moving over while slowing down. The cop will be liable for that accident if he has an invisibility screen on because the other car won't be able to see him.
