This is a collection of fragmented thoughts brought on by recent events during a long drive. It’s not meant to be “doom and gloom” serious…

Is it correct to expect an uptick in private security firms for executive protection?

Is it correct to assume that some of the ultra rich have their own “private military/force”?

How long until we see executives with some form of robotic security accompanying them?

I can’t tell if we’d expect to see them used in a military capacity first or if the military has too meet redundancy needs first – making it more likely for private ownership first.

I know we’ve seen examples of robodogs on a golf course - but when might an executive be strolling the streets with some form of automated protection?

What might be more realistic near term, or a decade into the future? Hiring soldiers/private-security would still make the most sense?

    They would have to choose between their mobile phones and electronic warfare protection systems that could possibly stop a drone. Add some security guards and you have some locked down unhappy rich people, which makes me happy.
