So Alameda County Sheriffs bought 2 drones for $97k http://m.sfgate.com/crime/article/Alameda-County-sheriff-reveals-that-he-s-bought-5930981.php … and people think there are some problems with how it was done.
@jetdillo I for one sincerely hope the 2 new drones bring better policing to Alameda County.

@starsandrobots@jetdillo (97K is an outrageous price for the technology purchased) something smells very fishy here! -
@hotelzululima@starsandrobots Oh, those are Lockheed prices... -
@jetdillo@starsandrobots does that price include training? -
@starsandrobots@jetdillo and does it include software updates, maintenance and crash/loss insurance/replacement policy? -
@hotelzululima@starsandrobots@jetdillo Does it include ED209 contingency plans? Do we need robots enforcing laws humans fail at already? -

@starsandrobots@jetdillo UAVs are by far cheaper on the city budget than that.. - 1 more reply
