    Everyone’s thinking of drones dropping bombs, but they aren’t thinking of the true horror; kamikaze micro drones. It doesn’t take much to kill someone, and micro drones can be wicked fast. Imagine a swarm of drones the size of a finch or smaller, each carrying a tiny explosive. Imagine these drones flying next to people’s heads and detonating themselves. You could clear out a whole building with very little structural damage.
