Would you fly one of these drones as a hobby in HK? Are they even legal in HK?
I would hate to wake up one morning and look out the window seeing one of these things snapping pics. Not that the Mainland government wouldn't start sending these over anyway in a few years. Or if Google Maps started using these.
But what about your neighbors flying these things around curious at what you do in your own home?
A news report about falling drone:

Drone reportedly plummets dozens of stories and crash lands on busy Manhattan streets
A businessman walking through the East Side of Manhattan Monday was startled when a 3-pound helicopter drone crash landed a few feet from him. The man recovered a memory card from the downed craft and passed it along to a local ABC News station, which broke the story of the accident this afternoon.
The man, concerned that he could have been injured by the falling drone, contacted local police, who told him that no law had been broken and did not pursue the pilot. FAA rules state, however, that hobbyist drones must fly below 400 feet and keep away from airports and heavily populated areas like city streets. The Verge contacted FAA spokesman Les Dorr, but reached the following voicemail message: "I am out of the office due to a lapse in funding. Please call back after news reports advise a resumption of services for all federal agencies."
Recently, I saw some guys playing around with a toy on a beach that looked like this:
