Vanessa Alarcon saw them while working at an antiwar rally in Lafayette Square last month."I heard someone say, 'Oh my god, look at those,' " the college senior from New York recalled. "I look up and I'm like, 'What the hell is that?' They looked kind of like dragonflies or little helicopters. But I mean, those are not insects."

that's nothing, dangerous budget DIY lasers are already doing the rounds for anarchists to blind cops right back...
edit: on second thoughts i'm not linking to it as some anarchists would think it's a good idea to make one

sneaky fuckers don't label their pictures.
It would have to be pretty small to pass for an insect, to carry a decent microphone with decent transmission/recording capacities that wouldn't have audio drowned out by the noise of whatever propulsion unit it had wuld not be easy.
I see your Dragonfly spy, and raise you a torture weapon
