Privacy fears as drones move into mainstream
Feb 17, 2013 (The Age - ABIX via COMTEX) --
Australian Privacy Commissioner Timothy Pilgrim has warned about the implications of increased use by the media of unmanned aerial vehicles. The drones, which have recently become much more affordable, are already being deployed for coverage of sports events and general news by commercial free-to-air TV networks, but there are fears they could also be used to spy on celebrities and private citizens. Current legislation does not prohibit such practices. However, Civil Aviation Safety Authority rules do apply.
