This is a follow up to the video I posted about the LAPD discussing drones trespassing.
In this video, they talk about that this video caused a little stir in the DA's office.
The DA then researches the problem and comes out with the conclusion, "There is nothing we can about it!".
As long as you fly under 400 feet, you're fine.
Case in point. Actress Barbra Streissand was sunbathing on her Malibu Ca property.
She sees a helicopter flying overhead and hovering. She files an invasion of privacy charge against the pilot.
The case went to the Californa State Supreme Court where they ruled that until the camera is actually pointed into the house through the glass, then there is no "Expectation of privacy".
IOW, you have no control of airspace above your property.
I am not a super big fanatic fan of Tom Zebra, but he brings up some issues about how the cops mistreat citizens and their authority. Now that he has a drone, I'm sure we will be seeing more from him with it. As you have seen in his video, and others, the camera of these drones are not that good that even at 50 feet, can you see any real clarity and be able to see someone's face and identify them.
