I'm starting to worry that even my responsible, legal activities are under threat

From now on, we can all blame the hackers for any activity thought to be illegal, might actually be a good thing since everybody knows it is very hard to beat the hackers!  The legal fliers may get better rules as a result.

Odd that the hackers are trying to justify what they are doing and then post photos from 10,000 ft altitude over a city.  Even if USA amateurs believe they have a right to fly at 10,000 ft without obtaining permission, it is clearly not sensible to do so over a city where there is inevitably going to be other air traffic and when using a drone that does not have any form of redundancy in it's propulsion system.
