If you seem to always have the feeling you are being watched…..It is because you probably are. When they are done watching you they can also strip search you. It is all legal.
In February, President Barack Obama signed a bill that opens U.S. airspace to thousands of these unmanned aircraft.
The drones come in just about any size you want - as large as a passenger plane - or as small as a hummingbird.
There's no stopping this technology," "Anybody who thinks they can put this genie back in the box - that's silliness."
Everyone wants an eye in the sky: real estate agents to view properties; farmers to find thirsty crops; energy companies to build pipelines; local police departments want to launch neighborhood surveillance flights, or find hard to catch criminals.
The committee just passed legislation that the FAA estimates will put 10,000 drones in the sky by 2017.
"That drone is not just picking up information on what's happening at that specific scene, it's picking up everything else that's going on,"
Should people be worried that Big Brother is coming to watch them? "Well, there's always that concern,"
"The average person probably doesn't even realize that these small, back-packable systems are used as extensively as they have been,"
