Why are they limiting air drop? Would this be because they’ve also disabled or are heavily monitoring WiFi?

Can someone explain this?

Videos and pictures are the two most often used items transferred when using airdrop. It uses a direct peer to peer Bluetooth distribution model. This leads me to believe that they simply want to limit videos.

Imagine being able to airdrop to everyone in a crowd, and then that airdrop gets sent out like a ripple all across the city. Works great for protests, right?
