Proposed Drone Ban Could Cripple Film Industry and Content Creation Nationwide

A recent opinion piece in the Deseret News highlights a controversial bill that could devastate not just ‘s film industry, but content creation across the entire . At DroneXL, we find ourselves in agreement with this perspective, recognizing the far-reaching implications of such legislation. The proposed bill, HR 2864 or the Countering CCP Drones Act, aims to ban popular drones manufactured outside the US, specifically targeting DJI, the world’s leading drone maker based in .

National Impact on Filmmaking and Beyond

While the original article focuses on Utah, it’s crucial to understand that the consequences of this bill would extend far beyond state lines. Filmmakers, content creators, and various industries across the country rely heavily on DJI drones for their superior technology and cost-effectiveness.

Josh Jackson, an Utah-based licensed drone camera operator, voiced concerns that resonate with professionals nationwide: “I own a DJI drone because they’re the best on the market. We use several types of drones in the footage I produce, and frankly, we don’t care where they’re made. We have to produce quality and high-end footage for our clients and in order to be competitive, we have to use drones made in .”

Security Claims vs. Market Reality

The bill’s proponents argue that DJI drones pose a security threat. However, this claim seems questionable when considering DJI’s implemented privacy measures. These include privacy by default design, a local data mode to disable internet connections, regular independent audits, and the option to use third-party flight apps.

Critics suggest this legislation may be more about protecting American companies from competition than addressing genuine security concerns. This protectionist approach could stifle innovation and limit consumer choice in the drone market across the entire United States.

Broader Implications for Multiple Sectors

The impact of this ban would stretch far beyond just the film industry. First responders nationwide rely on DJI drones for their reliability and ease of use in critical situations. Additionally, numerous other sectors, from agriculture to infrastructure inspection, would face significant setbacks if denied access to this leading technology.

DroneXL’s Take
