For commercial operations it depends on a two factors (Per § 107.9):
1. Did anyone lose consciousness or receive any serious Injuries?
2. Was there damage to property other than the sUAS that was equal to or greater than $500?

For a forum where the members are among the most law abiding in the country I find it interesting that there are this many post where people are going to such great lengths to try and find a way to commit a federal felony without getting caught.

This is the forum where off duty LEOs without LTC discuss driving through a GFSZ with a gun and people with out of state licenses the same thing. Federal felony. Three felonies a day...as the saying goes

Of course talking about it, or how to do it, or what might occur, if one were to do it isn't a felony. And getting the Justice Dept to pursue what's being discussed, and whether they could even make the case in the situations discussed is another matter.

But Rule #4 and stuff.

He found open ports on the network that the drone/controller used, was able to connect to the drone and take control of it. He downloaded all of the pictures/videos on the camera and confronted the parents of the kid with it.

I love that. It’s brilliant.

Yes but you see by connecting to the drone he was breaking federal wiretap laws and causing damage to an aircraft, both federal felonies.

Squawk squawk...rule #4, rule #4, squawk....
