“That’s a concern with drones and all forms of surveillance technology: What is the (data) container holding this information, and what are the vulnerabilities of that container?” EFF's Beryl Lipton told the Reno News & Review. https://renonr.com/2026/09/01/cops-eyes-in-the-skies-police-say-flying-cameras-enhance-public-safety-but-critics-warn-about-potential-civil-liberties-abuses/

@eff I understand the concerns with drones but what we have now is constant helicopter traffic with this same tech, two pilots and a tremendous fuel and maintenance bill.What am I missing?

@eff I can't help but think that some sort of copyright-like regulations governing personal information and likeness might solve a lot of problems and make corporations and institutions a little more cautious about days collection and storage. In particular something like the statutory damages clause. If $randocorp had to pay $30K for each piece of PII disclosed, they might take security and ethics a little more seriously.
