(2,117 posts)Requiring a warrant is incredibly stupid, barked Whitehead of the Rutherford Institute. It wont work.
Drones buzzing quietly overhead, Whitehead warned, will collect loads of information, including license plate numbers, wi-fi data and secret passwords. Equipped with right components, theyll peak through walls, which he believes bypasses the need for warrants.
Whitehead spent the past two years researching drones, their past, present and, most importantly,their future. During his study, he authored model legislation that he sent to the 50 state legislatures. He said hes very serious about restraining the surveillance state, though he knows it cannot be fully barred.
There will be drones everywhere, he said. Theres too much money to be made.
Analysts project the drone industry, now worth $5.9 billion annually, will more than double to $11.3 billion by 2020. Whitehead envisions domestic drones equipped with everything from high-power cameras with facial recognition technology to rubber bullets and sound cannons to break up political rallies or assemblies.
