Should the government permit the use of drones for commercial purposes?

i don’t have a say.

Yes, but with high priority on the safety of people and wildlife in the event of a malfunction.

Yes, but at a cost and with a licence

Who cares about drones

How does this pertain to the quiz

If it does not invade the privacy of others

Do not understand the question

Yes but insuring safety and privacy issues are thoroughly addressed and laws in place to prevent improper use

It would have to be heavily monitored to prevent issues

Yes if heavily monitored

Within reason and as long as enforced regulations.

Not without proper clearance.

Depends if there not near private property yes if they are no

Yes, but have some restrictions

Yes, but with heavy restrictions.

business should not be able to do anything consumers cannot, period

Yes, but with permit only

Drones should require licenses to ensure they are used responsibly. They are a potential safety threat and can easily be used for terrorism or surveillance.

I don’t see why it’s necessary- but Only if it doesn’t violate people’s privacy

It depends on the commercial purpose and where it is being used.

I dont really know.

Pending strict privacy and airspace regulations

No, people deserve privacy

If the civilians agree

Yes, as long as the drones won't be a danger hazard to people living in that area.

If it's not bothering anyone. Also It should at least be monitored

Yes but it should be closely regulated

Sorta? Yes but be monitored, people could buy them and say it's for commercial use but turn around and use it for nasty things.

i don’t care about drones tbh

as long as it is not to put someone in danger

Yes, but only with tight regulation.

Yes but with limits.

I feel as though the public is not aware of the pros and cons of this issue and before any decision is made the public needs to be aware of this

Yes, but highly regulate it.

I mean I’d prefer if they didn’t

No but permit required

Yes, if regulated to ensure ethical use, privacy, and no environmental impact

Yes, if it's regulated to some degree. Otherwise it could pose a potentially serious security/privacy risk.

With permission or permit

It should be within reason and people should be made aware of what is happening.

it could be cool

As long as no ones privacy is invaded without permission

Yes as long as not to see the public

depends how aware people are

Yes, however which cases these drones can be used in has to be public information and the regulations should be made with experts in fields such as security.

Should have some restrictions

It depends on how widespread the usage is.

Yes, but such commercial purposes should be heavily regulated

I don’t care/know enough about this to care

Yes, provided they do not have cameras or are used for ulterior motives

Only if they have a licence so they can be used responsibly but it would be hard to ensure proper use.

Depends on the type of business using them, definitely not in public spaces though.

For certain jobs, yes but for regular jobs ,no be cause it removes jobs for people

Yes, but there should be a comprehensive regulatory mechanism enforced by the government that prioritizes civilian privacy, safety and security.

With proper supervision

Don’t know what it means

If monitered and used responsibly.

It should be reviewed for purpose of use

yes, but with regulations.

as long as it doesn’t interfere with people’s privacy

Yes, but with strict regs.

Yes, but it should be government regulated

It depends. If drones are used for things like delivering prescriptions to remote communities, then yes. If they are used for scouting forestry opportunities, perhaps not.
