'Secret' drones are flying under radar of the law

China Daily | Updated: 2017-06-15 07:36

UNMANNED AERIAL vehicles manufactured by unauthorized workshops are for sale via live streaming platforms, provoking concerns about their safety. Chinese Business View commented on Wednesday:

It is baffling that the drones that have no production permits have been hailed by some as innovations. The crude promotional tricks aside, these unmanned aerial vehicles have to be put together by their buyers, who are encouraged to fly the drones "secretly".

That points to the security risks of these unauthorized drones. And live-streaming how the drones work and selling them directly to prospective buyers without promising any after-sale services, expose users to the risks of the unlicensed products malfunctioning and causing harm to persons or property. The secret ownership of the drones also means that in the event of any accident it will be hard to trace the owner and hold him or her accountable.
