BT has revealed plans to create a network for a 165-mile ‘drone superhighway’. The tech firm’s working on a comms system which could facilitate dozens of drones in the sky, delivering goods or carrying out services. BT’s Drone Director David Pankhurst talks to us about the ways drones could use the so called ‘superhighway’.
Amazon has filed 10,000 lawsuits against the admins of Facebook groups offering people money and free products to leave fake reviews on the site.
