Some commentary in canada, but more importantly issues and accidents...this area of law is changing: http://www.slaw.ca/2014/11/03/robot-law-ii-drones/ Snooping drone around a woman's apartment on Vancouver Island, etc.
Vancouver International Airport has had several incidents of drones that prevented incoming planes from landing...this was news nationally within the last few months. I believe there was an incident in North America where someone was killed by a drone that crashed on them.
People talk about the safety of smaller drones (therefore less subject to licensing)....what a pile of crap. We, meaning, mankind, have the means now, every single year to minaturize technological devices to become very powerful for surveillance and photography. If medicine can stick a camera inside your colon or engineering sector can stick a camera into the piping system for repairs....then now we have the technology to wide angle lens and zoom in.
Of course there's a public videoclip of gorgeous mansion homes in Vancouver....it goes on for 25 homes ..and the clip says taken by a drone. Drone was flying pretty close enough. I watched it.
