Not that you bristle at the thought of all drones. Maybe you don't necessarily mind the prospect of a cafécopter fetching your morning fix,
or of small-fry drones fulfilling any number of dull, dirty or
dangerous tasks, like spotting your sorry ass on a mountainside, cold
and with a broken ankle, after you've gone missing on a hike. You'd just
rather police drones not watch your daily goings on ad nauseum
and without your consent, and that's cool. Besides, that thing up there
has been trailing you for what feels like the past week. If only there
were some sort of legal recourse to see the drone buzz off and out of
your life for good.
There isn't, at least not yet. But while filing a restraining order
against an unmanned aerial system may still sound pretty far fetched,
it's apparently conceivable enough--the harrassment spectre of some
encroaching future--to already be warranting discussion among federal
agencies and privacy advocates.
