Drones

The FAA have been tasked to allow drones to operate widely in the US by 2015.
The CEO of FEDEX has stated he wants freight drones to be introduced as soon as possible. Iran claims to have captured a US military drone by interfering with its electronic control and another experiment in the US has just shown how simple it is to interfere with the GPS signal required for navigation. Given that hackers can gain access to the Pentagon`s most sophisticated security system, have the consequences of allowing drones to roam freely across our skies really been considered??
