Man this one of the most slippery slopes I've seen in a while.

There's red hat linux being used by the government. When are we getting the red hat kill drones?

Also, military drones and robots already exist without apple markup and are being made with mostly consumer parts now, in case you haven't been keeping up with the Ukraine and Gaza conflicts. Best just get prepared because if the police want them it won't matter who sells it to them.
