And right after DJI turfed the geofencing around the Whitehouse too.
Wait what's the drone company doing?
They've decided that their drones shouldn't care about enforcing legal safeguards like no-fly zones around airports and forest fires.
That's on our dumbass government. There are no laws requiring drones themselves to prohibit their operators from flying them in restricted airspace. DJI had that feature on their own accord. Our government just can't be arsed to do their fucking jobs and make sensible laws.
To clarify, they are still adhering to the law, their previous geofencig policy was something they did completely voluntarily and not required by law
