The People are starting to take notice. Groups like the IJ are starting to get involved. This needs to be handled thru the judicial system because the legislation is not working. When cities start sharing your data with the central government (and that includes the FAA) it's bad news for everyone when all the data is linked and AI along with facial recognitions comes into play.

Imagine adding drones to the mix along with the ground cameras:

Drones with facial recognition holding me for the police because I blew off jury duty is my worst nightmare. All I can say is get used to it. I myself have seen matrices and such fly over my neighborhood and I'm pretty sure its the property tax office or code enforcement mostly. On the 4th of July our town has quite a few drones in the air and if you are outside you will see one or two. I live pretty close to the airport so no fancy delivery for me. the skies sure are getting full tho.
This story is really not too shocking and I would ask why the police bought a matrice when they are certain to have a few traffic cams lying around. In Bakersfield if you run a red light or turn illegally in some way you will see a little flash at most lights and you can expect a letter in a few weeks. and the CHP has cams all up and down the freeway reading your plates and watching for violations. I'm sure they spend countless hours "running" plates.
