Spy vs Spy, becomes Spy vs EVERYBODY

.
'personal' drones that could stalk anyone

.
Spy drones are considered the future of policing, although critics have voiced concerns that they could be a worrying extension of Big Brother Britain.

Last month arms manufacturer BAE Systems said it was adapting military-style UAVs for a consortium of government agencies led by Kent police. Documents showed the force hoped to begin using the drones in time for the 2012 Olympics.

But they also indicated that the drones could eventually be used to spy on the civilian population, by rooting out motorists suspected of antisocial driving, for covert urban surveillance and to monitor 'waste management' for local councils.

Similar concepts are already being developed in the U.S.

'If the Israelis can use them to find terrorists, certainly a husband is going to be able to track a wife who goes out at 11 o'clock at night and follow her,' New York divorce lawyer Raoul Felder told the Journal.

.
Yeah, that's gonna happen. He won't just follow her, he'll spend three times what a PI costs, on a stupid toy!

Only if they shoot her if she tries to come back. Now that would be worth it.

Uh....if my "significant other" wanted to go out at 11 PM, I'd be OK with it.

JUST DON'T BOTHER TRYING TO COME BACK!!
