This appears to say that domestic drone video/data can be kept for 90 days.
How long is satellite video/data
good question and I don't know. I wasn't even aware the Air Force was
using drones in the US. I find the idea slightly chilling considering
how they are used elsewhere.

Border patrol wants to use them on the US Canadian border and I
believe they are testing unarmed drones, for surveillance only, on the
Mexican border.
Here's a thought experiment, what's better, for the data to be only in
the hands of corporate or government hands, or available to anyone?

what data are we talking about exactly? Now there's a question. Is
this an advanced version of google maps? With intercept capability? Or
is there eavesdropping capability as well?
Offhand, I'd choose corporate. I can tell Google to F* off if I so choose.

I would have to look for the story, but i seem to recall hearing about some
police deopartmetns purchasing a drone. It may have been in ref to
immigaration enforcement. I will have to look to be sure.

If its something like that, how different is it from the police using
helicopters or even a cop on the beat. I think the issue is who get
the data and how long is it kept for. I trust corporations as much as
I'd trust governments.

There a re a bunch of local police forces that have gotten into the drone
business. I saw an article about them being used in Dallas recently.
What's funny is that even though these local police are using the the DHS

drone...there is no direct human intervention availaible to avert it from

happen with manned aircraft, but at least then there is a piolt that gets

About 2 years ago I was working on a contract for a engineering
institute, I had to attend their annual scientific conference. One of
the biggest presentations was the demonstration of an antonymous urban
navigation system for drones. Part of
