News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

From having heard stories from people in the area, it is worse than just guards. Guys in speedboats in full tactical gear, cameras and sonar sensors and all sorts of shit that can tell how close you are, where you are, from a mile out from the shore, and dispatch people there in minutes. It is legitimately a cyberpunk gated community.
What about a drone and just dropping sone bombs onto the place.
If the Ukrainians can do it to russian airbases, it should be doable to the island. But it costs money. And the type of people who have that kind of money see themselves living on that island some day.
Well then us poors should pool our money and start fighting back. Where rhe fuck are the anarchist and far left people at? I'm sure we can do this.
Actually I googled it. The most expensive was listed at $30k. I thought I had read a much higher number previously. And the less expensive are $1k. But you do need pilots, and you need overwhelming numbers. That said, far more doable than I thought.
Do you need pilots? Can't you just program the coordinates in? 25,8761060, -80,1358367
Not if you want them all to spread out so they are harder to counter. I am sure they have some anti-drone tech to stop people from taking video, but with enough drones, spread out it probably won't be enough. And you want them to fly low to avoid early detection. You also want them to come in from various directions all at the same time. And I am sure it is a big island, so you want to pick your targets on the fly.
The servants have to go in and out. And even if they're all loyal, there's always new hires or temps, not to mention delivery and service vehicles going in and out.
