I ain't likin' this bill at all. It's gonna lead to more surveillance and less privacy for us regular folks. Plus, who knows what kinda mistakes these unmanned systems might make? It's a recipe for disaster, mark my words. Short term, it's gonna make me feel even more uneasy about my own safety and privacy.
