So this might belong under black Friday sale thread, but I am looking for gifts for people who have everything! What are some great, go-to gadgets you guys have or have given as gifts? I'm curious about these Google home type devices. If you have one (or something similar) can you help me understand what it does and why one would want/need one? I'm thinking it might be a different kind of gadget gift for my dad, but not sure if it's worth it (and talk slow, like I'm a 3 yo because that's how I feel about technology half the time! Lol)
And go...

Recently people on our town Facebook page got pissed about drones because they thought people with drones would spy on them by flying them over their house. They actually said they were probably illegal and trespassing. People were quick to point out that you don’t own the air/sky by your house.

They live near a wooded “no mans” zone with train tracks so I think he mostly uses it over there or in parks. He hasn’t had any complaints!

I just heard ppl complaining about them. I mean, I can imagine if it felt like someone was just flying over my backyard and taking pics, it would feel intrusive. But I think there are probably lots of interesting public places everywhere to fly them!
