The U.S. is one step closer to a DJI drone ban. I've voiced my concerns on this previously, considering nearly 3/4 of the U.S. drone fleet is built by DJI.
In summary, the implications for existing owners and operators is unknown, but wording the prohibition around DJI drones not using U.S. communications infrastructure suggests a gradual phasing out of support, after which operating existing DJI drones may become illegal, or the drones themselves will get bricked.
