California (Law Enforcement): A bill zipping through committee hoops in California
also deals with data retention obtained by drones as well as law
enforcement issues. Assembly Bill 1327 (Unmanned Aircraft Systems)
states that: “All data which is collected by public drones would need to
be destroyed within six month. The ‘weaponization’ of drones would be
illegal. Law enforcement would generally be required to obtain a warrant
to use a drone. A warrant would not be necessary in certain emergency
situations such as search and rescue.”
In September 2014, California governor Ed Brown signed into law AB 2306
which amends existing privacy laws to prohibit anybody from using a
drone to take pictures of a person “under circumstances in which [they]
had a reasonable expectation of privacy,” and where said picture could
not have been taken without trespassing if the drone hadn’t been used.
