The Rise of Mini-Drones
I recently wrote a post on my author's website/bog about the rise and swarm of mini-drones. In the article I talk about the U.S. government's "Cicada" mini-drone. In particular I explain what it is and how it is used. I also provided some insight into where the mini-drone technology is headed and what it portends in the areas of surveillance, security and personal privacy. See the full post here.

EXCELLENT ACTION/ADVENTURE/THRILLER BY AN EMERGING NEW AUTHOR
Another 5.0 out of 5 stars review on my new book Waterkill: "EXCELLENT ACTION/ADVENTURE/THRILLER BY AN EMERGING NEW AUTHOR". See full review at: http://www.amazon.com/review/R11CLWX2...
Why I Wrote WATERKILL and NANO SURVEILLANCE
People ask me why I wrote WATERKILL and NANO SURVEILLANCE. There are a number of reasons why. However, the main reason is, is that I believe the United States is under attack from within. More precisely, I believe that Washington DC, and in particular the White House, are at the epicenter of where the attack is originating from. And who are the perpetrators? Global politicians who care less about the USA, and more about a single global government, and their own specific powers that they can garner.
So in short, I wanted to educate the American public, and the world, on what threats and technology are available today, or could be so in a very short time, that put the USA and the world at high risk.
Nanoscience is one of the technologies, that though offers many incredible possible benefits to mankind, also offers major social concerns and risks to the public. For example, nanotechnology provides incredible surveillance and medical benefits, but if used in appropriately by the wrong people, could also be used to encroach upon individuals privacy and to spread biological epidemics.
Case in point, look at the now ubiquitous consumer drone. This meter in diameter toy is being used as a new voyeur tool by private citizens. Imagine when that drone is only the size of a fly, or smaller. If you can't imagine it, then simply do a Google search. They already exist, and they are getting smaller by the day. Thus why I wrote NANO SURVEILLANCE. Simply put, your government, and anybody else that wants to, can and will soon be observing your every move.
Its a similar story with nanotechnology used in medicine. Nanoscience is used today in medicine to precisely deliver medicines into the human body and for fighting cancer. Similarly, it could also be used as a vehicle for spreading massive pandemics. Thus why I wrote WATERKILL.
