Yep. Where does it end? Can someone then get a dozen drones with infrared on them and park them 5' outside every window of your house to see what's going on inside even if the blinds are drawn?

The law needs to catch up with this technology and that will only happen if there are a few cases to start off with. Shooting down a few to help define what air rights property owners really have would help.

FAA regulations typically discourage operating closer than 500' to people, often more. It might stand to reason that there's a reasonable expectation of privacy from drones or other surveillance at least that far away.

If someone flies one on my property without my knowing it, I'm still capturing it or shooting it down. Let them sue me. I don't care.
