<description><![CDATA[ (Jan 22, 2013) Drones are smaller, cheaper, and easier to use than ever, and their cameras are more powerful than ever.In the near future, drones may be used to find criminals, track wildlife, or find a lost hiker in a remote canyon.

McNeal believes local government, not the courts, should lead the way in writing the rules in the drone era.He says our notions of privacy may differ from what the law says. McNeal told David Sommerstein the Supreme Court has upheld the right of law enforcement to look for wrongdoing from a helicopter or plane.
