Drones don’t kill people. Governments kill people. Drones are not necessarily a problem. They have legitimate uses, including legitimate uses in war. The problem with killer drones is that they are a technology that makes it easy to commit acts of war and pretend that they are something else.
And of course surveillance drones are different from killer drones. They, too, have their legitimate uses. The issue is not surveillance drones versus other kinds of surveillance technology. The issue is how much surveillance we the people are willing to tolerate.
These are not technology questions. These are Constitutional questions.
Hat tip to naked capitalism.
