I liked the “While there has been no claim of responsibility, an abundance of theories have been offered, ranging from the work of a Mexican drug cartel, to aliens from a far-off galaxy”
just imagine the technical capabilities of aliens from a far off galaxy, having to get a P.O. Box so they can order their drones and receive them. I imagine them dressed in trench coat with hat over their heads, monotone voice attempting to sound human “has my package arrived yet? I’m not an alien or anything”
One comment in that had a point I think. If the authorities or anyone really were actually interested in what is going on, since they show up in a known timeframe and area, why hasn’t anyone used a drone to follow them back to their base?
I’ve personally only had two experiences with drones. Both at our cabin. A drone that just showed up, and hovered over the cabin for a while, both at night and daytime. It’s unnerving. Whether I should or shouldn’t feel that way, you don’t know who is doing it, or why, and it is a very creepy feeling.
Ironically my nephew was up at the cabin, and took along his new drone. He was enjoying showing how it worked, and taking photos of our cabin, then around the lake we are on.
He had just got it at that time and wasn’t paying attention to the battery capacity. When he did, the drone was over the lake, more to the opposite side, and the drone at some point took over and locked him out and landed on the far shore. We scrambled into his car, and drove over to the other side, but weren’t sure exactly where it was. Last fix wasn’t that good, on the way down before the camera cut out, we saw a rooftop...gee that was helpful. But we did see another cabin that turned out to be the one. Recovered the drone, but I felt very sheepish when we had to knock on the door, explain we needed to go down to his beach area and retrieve and that we weren’t “spying” on him. He actually was cool about it. I felt bad though, like I had been party to invading his privacy.
