BUT just consider this........................ multirotor/FPV/video is at it's heart a stealth surveillance platform, Does it have great potential for criminal use. you bet.

Don't misunderstand me, I AM NOT calling for a ban, licensing, harsh regulation. What is needed is a open discussion on the benefits / problems so there are fewer "unanticipated consequences".
Excellent Post, Mr. Bradpaul.
