But muh privacy!!!
That's pretty much what I got in response. Mind you, they're fine with people walking around with gopros on their heads, but they don't want to possibly be filmed from the air while I'm getting a shot of the bay, sunset, bars on the beaches, beautiful landmarks, etc...
That has been my problem with the privacy BS from the beginning. People use smart phones, GoPros, video cams , and cameras all the time and people don’t whine about their privacy (except for public figures that whine about paparazzi). But put props on it and get it in the air and suddenly their privacy has been invaded. Never mind that the image shows less recognizable imagery than any of the others that they take in stride.
