Don't you think fiction is soon turning into reality

this tech is highly dangerous when stolen, for instance with an EMP blast.
it can be turned on you or your troops. imagine a political parties members getting "offed" with a thousand of these drones redeployed from regions like Afghanistan. Let alone the tremendous potential for sales to or theft by criminals or terrorists vs civilian populations. With just a little adaptation of the code, you can turn these things into racially targeted murderers. And the builders of this tech sound so devilishly enthusiastic about killing 'bad guys', that they could well be or end up not caring too much about the ethics of those that buy their gear.
this tech, wherever it is (eventually) produced, should be constantly monitored and highly regulated and controlled, it should be forced to have a remote encrypted off-switch, and never ever released on a large scale (because it would then be much like a portable, dividable, and fast-spreading DNA targeted biological weapon).
i'm forwarding this to parties like the UN, the Whitehouse, several political parties, intel agencies from west, middle east, and asia, and a bunch of mass media companies (also worldwide).

Already viewed by the UN. Even though it is fiction I have said repeatedly future battlefields will be too dangerous for humans to operate in due to swarms of fearless expendable killer drones targeting men, vehicles, planes, and ships.

Slaughterbots - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

Slaughterbots is a 2017 arms-control advocacy video presenting a dramatized near-future scenario where swarms of inexpensive microdrones use artificial intelligence and facial recognition to assassinate political opponents based on preprogrammed criteria. The video was released onto YouTube by the Future of Life Institute and Stuart Russell, a professor of computer science at Berkeley, on 12 November 2017.[1] The video quickly went viral, gaining over two million views.[2][3] The video was also screened to the November 2017 United Nations Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons meeting in Geneva

Very happy to know that now. Thanks.
The only thing that can stop things like these is the proper amount of armor, but that is not easy to get or field.

Unfortunately just a small amount of the right explosives can defeat most armor a person can wear.

Look how these little hockey pucks can defeat a tank.

The level of intelligence we (humans) put on killing each other, if we have put half of it for the development and medical, the world would be a better place to live.

@Hamartia Antidote, yesterday there was a thread about the Russian electronic warfare system called Krasukha-4 whose Wiki section says :

The Krasukha-4 broadband multifunctional jamming station is mounted on a BAZ-6910-022 four-axle-chassis. Like the Krasukha-2, the Krasukha-4 counters AWACS and other airborne radar systems. The Krasukha-4 has the range effectively to disrupt low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites and can cause permanent damage to targeted radio-electronic devices. Ground based radars are also a viable target for the Krasukha-4

Can such a system, deployed in numbers all around a city, protect the city from these micro-drone swarms ? Jam them ? Destroy them even ?

And further, the city's and the country's socio-economic system should prevent saboteurs and assassins inside from creating such drones. I quote from a recent post of mine that came subsequent to an economic system proposal of mine :

Money is an artificial construct. If you read my thread you will see that the money there simply is a monthly recycling amount for each citizen. It need not be deposited in a bank ( a savings account ) but primarily exist within the citizen's personal wearable computer in a secure digital storage. However, when citizens do financial transaction, whether on personal reasons or a B2B or B2C transaction, the amount is deducted in the personal computer and is also securely recorded by the bank so that not only is any loan amount repayment seriousness known but also political criminals ( assassins, saboteurs etc ) and anti-social criminals are not able to transact.

The "funds" in such a context are just numbers. They exist in the citizen's computer and the bank's computer.

So defense against machines has to be outward facing and well as from inside.

I believe you have lock onto the flying vehicle to overpower competing signal to jam it.
This isn't possible with a swarm of hundreds.

In that case the Wiki has this part :

and can cause permanent damage to targeted radio-electronic devices.

This will be done by strong microwaves IIRC. Can multiple microwave devices just flood the air like that American crowd-control system called Active Denial System ? If the ADS microwaves can penetrate exposed skin and basically boil the sub-skin water then the spread-out microwaves can possibly affect the micro-drone swarm, defeat its electronics and also possibly prematurely explode its explosives.

Slaughterbots equipped with electronics encaged in faraday cages can then still be a problem.

these slaughterbots are perhaps best defeated by counter mini drones, equipped with fragmentation explosives.

the race for the fastest moving drones is now on.

Or maybe with a single cricket bat.
