NYPD using drones to check out noisy backyard parties over Labor Day weekend::Critic says it may violate NYC’s Public Oversight of Surveillance Technology Act.

Sling shot target practice.

Then they’ll start calling the drones “robotic police officers” so they can charge you with assaulting a cop, like they do with the dogs.

Plainly illegal search, they do it anyways

I don’t see what any of that has to do with noise.

“What’s the situation?”

“I hear a lot of noise from a lot of people.”

“Get a visual… Now what?”

“I hear a lot of noise from a lot of people and can now see the people.”

“Ah-ha! I knew it! Well, the decibel meter says it’s okay for this time of day, so… Grab a bite?”

“Use the facial recognition to look for people with warrants ornin probation so we can justify raiding the party without probable cause.”

It would be a shame if someone were to blast it with enough RF noise to disrupt its functionality.
