Title: "And so it came to pass:" ACLU warns of police using drones on populace
Post by: Ingo Monk on January 03, 2012, 02:22:41 PM

ACLU is warning that the continued lowering of the costs of buying and maintaining drones may lead to "routine aerial surveillance of American life."  In addition they could be used to monitor gatherings/protests or even used to drop tear gas onto unruly crowds.
