Facebook says "no" to internet drones

Posted

Facebook is done with drones. Well, sort of.

The social media site has chosen not to create drones that would provide Internet access to people in remote areas.

Facebook built a drone a few years ago and did a few test flights.

The results were mixed, though.

Facebook now says it will join forces with other companies to create drones that can beam Internet capabilities from above.
