      Sometimes I wonder if they’re the last sane people on the planet. Then I remember we have antibiotics, and my mom has a power wheelchair, and I wonder if there can’t be some middle ground.

      Yep. From the North Sentinel Island wikipedia page:

      The islanders have been observed shooting arrows at boats, as well as at **low-flying helicopters. **

      If they’re shooting at a helicopter, I don’t think they’ll think about a bunch of drones any differently.

      At this point I’m getting concerned with the amount of climate change we’ve got going on if they may be forced to relocate in the not too distant future
