Snooping on your neighbor with a drone could soon be illegal according to new bill

A new bill will soon make it illegal to snoop on your neighbor with a drone. Called the Drone Integration and Zoning Act, the proposal deems airspace up to 200 feet over someone's home as their private property meaning punishments for trespassing could be enforced. The motion aims to distribute some of the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) authority over the nation's airspace to localities and private citizens by redefining'navigable airspace'. Sen. Mike Lee said from Utah, proposed the bill to congress on Wednesday stating, 'The FAA cannot feasibly or efficiently oversee millions of drones in every locality throughout the country.' 'The reason that the states have sovereign police powers to protect the property of their citizens is because issues of land use, privacy, trespass, and law enforcement make sense at the state and local level.' 'The best way to ensure public safety and allow this innovative industry to thrive is to empower the people closest to the ground to make local decisions in real time and that is exactly what the Drone Integration and Zoning Act does.'
