A mercenery corporation (they exist) could market and sell single-use radio beacons to governments and freedom fighters that could be activated and launched/thrown/affixed to a likely target. In minutes, the company's nearest bomber would recieve the summons and relieve itself of its payload over said
target. It would come in three intensities- surgical, standard, and instant sunrise. Keep out of reach of children!

That's a rather willy-nilly approach to anarchy/greed/revenge, isn't it?
Nice nic, though. |

Yes, I actually run an organization of the same name (as my nic) in which everyone is welcome, and all are united by one thing- their hate for that most insidious of corporations, McDonalds. <ontopic>Well, in a dystopian world where cash is king, much like our own, it's not to difficult to fathom. And it would likely have safety features and failsafes. I guess it could be purchased as two parts, the actual beacon and the controller, so as to retroactively deactivate the beacon. And perhaps towns that paid a fee could be in a corporate-sponsored no-bomb zone. |

We have enough free lancers in this world without cursing it with more. And even mercenaries have to get permission to fly through other people's airspace. |

I should move this to evil, because this is an evil idea, not meant to really be taken seriously as pertaining to our society. *moves it to evil*. |

Awww . . . ! Now what did you go and do
that for? It's not *too* terribly evil!
Remember, it's not evil if it's hilarious. |
