FAA issuing new rules to allow drones to fly over people and at night
Even though I don't fly over people, I retrofitted a parachute onto my DJI drone just in case.  It automatically deploys if the drone loses power or control.  It doesn't impact flight characteristics or battery life by much.I feel like a basic safety like this would be a prudent and more effective measure for overhead flights than self-transmitting "license plates" (which I agree are at least better than the silly internet requirement).
