"In Shura City the mashrabiya would be movable and able to form new patterns - even QR codes which would make any interloping drones spontaneously self-destruct."
Well we are all going to have to install inti-qr crumple zones. Maybe the APM dev team should be jumping on this asap. Lol
Not sure what parallel internet that caused a stir in, but it brought to mind the idea of a drone friendly city. A city could be equipped with RF transponders designed for accurate position sensing & relaying communication with flying robots from beyond line of sight. Corridors with safe crashing zones & nets could be devised. Recharging stations could be made. Weather stations could be set up.

Woah. That's an impressive cover up.
Been there, done that:
