Drones are showing up where they shouldn’t — over backyards, pools, windows, driveways, campsites, neighborhoods, and even over insurance customers’ houses to jack up premiums. And here’s the terrifying part: nobody knows who owns them, and the laws protecting you are a mess.

In this episode of Legitimate Cybersecurity, Frank, Dustin, and Chris Adkins break down:

• The explosion of drone trespassing across the U.S.

• Drone “etiquette” (if such a thing exists)

• Why shooting down a drone might be illegal… but hijacking its open Wi-Fi might not be

• How insurance companies are secretly flying drones to deny coverage

• Whether YOU own the air above your home (the answer will piss you off)

• The ethics of taking over unencrypted drones

• Why the U.S. military once had its Predator drones hacked

• The insane world of bathtub drones and balloon monks

• And how long until drones accidentally kill someone and trigger a legal revolution

This episode is chaotic, hilarious, and honestly a little terrifying — one of our most eye-opening discussions yet.
