Since I had no idea yet that this form of advertising existed, my head turned back and forth like a dog with no idea what\u2019s going on.<\/p>\n<p>It didn\u2019t look like an alien invasion, it wasn\u2019t some sort of sentient fireworks show, and I was pretty sure these figures were not birds from the future. But that last one was a pretty good guess, I think.<\/p>\n<p>After standing there staring all night until a meter maid attached a wheel clamp to my leg, it soon became evident these demons in the sky could only be drones. Who knew they\u2019d become so advanced and could work together like synchronized swimmers?

Maybe it depends on your mood that day. There are blatant concerns regarding light pollution, and the New York City Audubon group is additionally worried that such elaborate drone shows could put synchronized bird shows out of businesses.<\/p>\n<p>Ok, that\u2019s not what they said\u2013it had something to do with interfering with bird flight patterns. One can imagine these drones easily sending the birds off course, especially if they thought the drones were lining up for some massive <em>Braveheart<\/em>-like battle in the sky. There are regulations around such things, which is why that Candy Crush show was actually launched from New Jersey, where it\u2019s legal.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s depressing is that advertisers will continue trying elaborate ways to force their slogans and logos into our corneas, each successive method harder to ignore than the last. We will see ads in the sky and on the moon and feel an itch on our leg and realize it\u2019s somehow a promoted Tweet for Dove or something.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps, and just hear me out, if we stop ignoring basic ads on TV and the internet, brands wouldn\u2019t make such invasive moves to advertise their products.<\/p>\n<p>Just kidding, they\u2019ll do it regardless.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><script>\n setTimeout(function(){\n  !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n  {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n  n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n  if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n  n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n  t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n  s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s) } (window, document,'script',\n  'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n   fbq('init', '335401813750447');\n   fbq('track', 'PageView');\n  },3000);\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
