Ask HN: Police use of drones and the 4th Amendment?
2 by samstave | 0 comments on Hacker News.
I saw a post where police used a drone catching some kids up to some mischief, which sent them running... It got me thinking about local PDs using drones for whatever, and the 4th amendement: - > Fourth Amendment The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized. - >> and particularly describing the place to be searched Seems like a drone use is a warrantless search? I am just curious on the interpretation here - as I am sure we will see police drone use en-mass in the next few years... And then there will be prosecutions against others who use drones to take out police drones, or anyone destroying a police drone - regardless of if the drone's by the PD is legal. Anigbrawl thoughts?
