Terrifying: Facebook Is Launching A Drone Squadron [VIDEO]

AND frikkin lasers. No really. I've never really trusted Mark Zuckerberg. He's very pink, and he has inky black eyes that would be unnervingly shiny if they weren't windows into an infinite chasm of evil. So I'm not surprised that he's planning to use his multi-billion dollar company to launch a squadron of solar-powered drones, even if he says that he'll use them to provide internet access to underdeveloped countries.

Facebook’s Internet.org initiative is working on a fleet of drones, satellites, and lasers, with the aim of “beaming internet from the sky.”

Zuck writes that to take this mission further, Internet.org is going to need new technology. That’s where Facebook’s new Connectivity Lab, which includes engineers from NASA’s Jet Propulsion Lab and Ames Research Center, comes in.

Tin foil hat time.
