And uhh, the legal team is taking his kids abroad?

This is journalism? I teach journalism at a Maryland high school and this would be a failing paper.

What about if someone spelled vehemently that way?

English evolves you know. /s

Ohhh it is now. Harry and Meghan just successfully sued an American tabloid that snapped a drone pic of Archie and Doria playing in a toy car in their driveway. I saw the pics before they were removed. It was nothing special. But since the photos were obtained illegally, because they were on their private property, the pics were destroyed and removed. California has enacted a lot of new laws recently to help protect against drones

Is it legal for me to take down/disable a drone flying over my property? Asking for a friend.

As far as recording , this is a “single person consent” jurisdiction, so as long as the drone operator consents, they can record you.

Same with phone calls: only one party needs to consent.

The more you know.

Is it legal for me to shoot your car up because I saw you drive past my house? Asking for a friend.

If you live around DC, you don’t have to worry because most of the area is a no fly zone for drones.

Are you driving your car in my backyard?

No. It’s on the public street in front of your house.

Just like the public airspace above your home.



You don’t own the street. Or the sky.

Actually, you do own the air rights above your house.

They are regulated, though.

And who owns the airspace above that?

Everyone. That’s who.

Helicopters and planes are no longer allowed to use my airspace above my house.

It depends on the state. Some of them have stricter laws. In my opinion, it's called private property for a reason. Imagine a flying object above your house taking pictures of you and your family. Or even worse, outside your windows. Anyway. Somehow I believe it can be illegal if the purpose is not to literally violate someone's private life (like the paparazzi do). In the pictures, I'd say the distance between the drone and the house is pretty decent, but we all know that paparazzi have no common sense and are very intrusive. I know a similar case with someone I know. He bought a drone from DizzyProps and used it to take pictures of people's credit cards while they were at the ATM. Well, it's good he'd been sued.
