@someone else -- Re: Kieran-
Back then, I knew a lot of folks that never bothered with the license for their CB as who was going to go to the trouble to arrest them.
I predict this will end the same way. Why bother to register it? If it crashes, no one will come to your door since your name isn't on it. The FAA isn't come down your street and check your house, etc. for a drone. Why bother?
This whole thing smells of theater... and maybe a power grab for some value of "power".
