Delivery e-drones smacks of "Big Brother" taking control over the masses
Mark my words, Delivery Drones will someday "deliver" more than online
purchases on you.
I think they will be fueled with malicious intent.

This piece is rather vague. I get the distinct impression that the
writer's
native language isn't English. So when he says "electric propellers" does
he really mean that the drone's fuel is electricity? I looked at several
other web articles on this. Oddly, none of them even mentions how the
drone
is fueled.
I'm no expert, but I would think that a craft like that would have pretty
limited range and/or payload if it had to carry all its energy in a
battery.
I wonder if it might be something more like this.
