New Laws for ‘Peeping Tom’ Drones

New Laws for ‘Peeping Tom’ Drones

The advancement of technology and accessibility of low-cost drones has been an exciting new product for many to enjoy lawfully. Privacy concerns exist and an expanding ‘Peeping Tom’ law, Penal Code Section 647(j)(1), has been enacted to protect people’s privacy from unwanted observation. Under this new code section, the operator of an unmanned aircraft system (or drone) is prohibited from viewing the interior of any area in which the occupant has a reasonable expectation of privacy, if the operator has the intent to invade the privacy of another person. Such conduct could result in jail time, probation and a fine.
