I suspect that little more than a dish antenna and a spark plug is required to over-ride the radio control of these things. The use of these will piss off nearby TV users but not as much as a shotgun will piss off the police.
Comment please.

How does a dish antenna and a spark plug mess up radio control.?
A true drone can fly on its own and are pretty cheap to put together.
:-P
Untuned wideband RF source, screw up the drone's remote WiFi control, cheaper and lower power than hotwiring a microwave oven ;o)
We're discussing cheap paparazzi drones, not a military hit drone.
Grant.
The cheap paparazzi "drones" are basically RC with a camera on it however for a couple of hundred dollars it is easy to install a autopilot. These things can follow a grid and land on their own when out of juice.
:-P
That may be true but not in the case of paparazzi drones.
maybe. some of these things keep the same control settings if they lose the remote control signal.
perhaps a crossbow firing a blunt bolt trailong a nylon steel line: foul one of the propellers. or even a fishing rod.

just as illegal as a shotgun(almost impossible to license in most states) firing a blunt bolt trailong a nylon steel line:
A grid of helium filled balloons each on the end of a couple of hundred metres of 5 kg nylon.
Fishing rod with a good sinker attached to the line.
:-P
Drone killer drone.
