    So this means I'm allowed to fly my drone over prison yards then, right?

    Edit: Also, doesn't that then make it legal for folks to capture the drones? It's on their property.

        Wait, we don't own our property airspace? So then, and I'm not being facetious, the entire plot of the 2010 film Burlesque is complete bullshit?

        I figured a drone over a prison was a no and I was just being humorous but the citizen's lack of property airspace sucks. I get it for like a mile above your house because of planes, but drone height? That's stupid.

        What if the drone touches the ground or a surface that connects to the ground like a rooftop? Is it fair game then?

    In dystopia authoritarian China, the police fly drones over citizens having weekend parties on their own property.

      I honestly don't know. Maybe they could equipt them with powerful microphones that can record the conversations of the people below. They would help with putting a stop to thought crime. The police could then use automated speech analysis to determine if you are comiting thought crime and activate the appropriate response.

      Afyer the initial reponse they could remove the person and their friends and family from society. It would be a challenging task updating the records to show that these terrorists never existed. You would also need to make sure that the people around are aware that there own memories are wrong.
