China's DJI, the world's leading drone manufacturer, has decided to remove its long-standing geofencing feature, which previously prevented drones from flying over restricted areas such as airports, wildfires, and the White House. The post Chinese Drone Giant DJI Removes Geofencing that Protects White House, Airports, Wildfires appeared first on Breitbart.
The main conceptual idea of the text is that Chinese drone manufacturer DJI has removed its built-in geofencing feature, which previously prevented drones from flying over restricted areas like airports, wildfires, and the White House.
The decision is based on the belief that new Remote ID technology will adequately address airspace safety concerns, placing the responsibility of compliance on drone operators rather than automated restrictions.
This move has sparked controversy, with concerns raised about potential misuse and increased risk, especially among less experienced drone pilots.
DJI argues this aligns with global aviation regulations emphasizing operator responsibility, but questions remain about the effectiveness of voluntary warnings in ensuring airspace safety.
