"The Federal Aviation Administration’s requirement that hobby drone
users register their devices was struck down in an appeals court Friday.
The
U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit ruled in
favor of John Taylor, a drone hobbyist who had challenged the legality
of the FAA’s drone-registration program.
The program, which was instituted in December 2015,
required hobby drone owners to register through an FAA website for a $5
fee. Drone hobbyists were then issued a unique identification, which
they were required to mark on their drones. Within the first month, nearly 300,000 drone owners had registered."
Actually, I thought registration was a good idea. We'll see where this goes.
