Amazingly, Motherboard reports that something very similar actually happened recently when a college student in the Boston area accidentally received parts of a $350,000 aerial drone in the mail and posted pictures of it on Reddit. Motherboard confirmed that the drone is actually the property of the National Ocean and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the agency has told the publication that it’s not sure exactly how the drone wound up in the student’s mailbox.

Not long ago, the company behind Moves was acquired by Facebook. On the plus side, Facebook instantly made the app free following the acquisition. But as many had feared, the company also changed the app’s privacy policy.

Hosting over 130 exotic supercars and custom luxury vehicles in the same place sure draws some attention, as Saturn Drives kicked off another year of organized car cruise events in Southern Ontario.
We’ve gone ahead and gathered a huge photo gallery showing these rev-happy car enthusiasts out in full force, as the roaring pack of Lamborghini Aventadors was seen driving alongside several Ford GTs, Dodge Vipers, Porsches, Aston Martins, Ferraris and more. The sound of these cars could be heard from miles away, marking the unmistakable sound that Spring has indeed sprung.
The organized event featured a full day cruise along some of the GTA’s nicest roads (while obeying the law of course) and wrapped up with an exotic car BBQ sponsored by Saturns Drives and Signature Luxury Division in Toronto. The crowded parking lot was packed with a few hundred spectators hoping to get a closer look at all of these dream cars on display.
Click here to view the full photo gallery from the event for yourself and stay tuned for more.

Is parody even possible when it comes to the tech world?
