500 drones to light up New York Sky to advertise Candy Crush

At least 500 drones will lift off from the shore of New Jersey on Thursday night to perform a choreographed dance in the sky that will resemble the vibrant experience of swiping candies off of a smartphone screen. In an airborne commercial for the well-known mobile video game Candy Crush, the swarm of drones will pulse with LED lights from miles of Lower Manhattan, according to a Gothamist report. But other New Yorkers find the exhibit confusing and wonder why the skyline of the city needs to mimic a business logo.

Some people, however, consider the drone display to be less than "sweet" and more of an undesirable source of visual pollution, environmental disruption, and perhaps even a violation of the city's stringent drone use restrictions. It is "outrageous," according to state senator Brad Hoylman of Manhattan's West Side, that such a show will deface the city's skyline for individual gain. Even though he was invited, he argued that it would be "offensive" to the city's residents, laws, and wildlife.
