Don made some good statements in his latest live stream video. Apparently, some of the drone channels have been flying dangerously - through/inside buildings under construction, between large cranes and their load, etc. I am not a lawyer, but these sound like violations of the FAA pilot rules. The proper response would be to cite those specific instances and file complaints with the FAA and/or appropriate governing body. Instead, The Developer's lawyer sent out a blanket cease, desist & remove letter to several prominent drone pilots.

I believe The Developer has vastly overreached their perceived control/authority. Hopefully, the drone pilots can afford enough lawyering to put The Developer in their place.
