Not if it's visible from the public space.
OP should check the local laws first. It's possible he had no recourse, depending on how high the drone flies. It's not like airplanes need your permission to fly over your property.
- jacquesm 8y agoThe air above your garden is not exactly 'public space'. People will put all kinds of visible barriers around their house to get some privacy, hovering your drone over those barriers is clearly a breach of sorts. Depending on where this is happening the laws will vary but here is one example from the UK: http://www.prettys.co.uk/drones-and-the-law http://www.prettys.co.uk/drones-and-the-law

- loriverkutya 8y agoIn the UK you cannot fly drones near any houses or person (less then 50 meters) https://www.gov.uk/government/news/drones-are-you-flying-yours-safely-and-legally https://www.gov.uk/government/news/drones-are-you-flying-you...
- PeterisP 8y agoPublic airspace starts rather high (500 feet?), a random drone flying over your garden at 300 ft height is technically located in your private property.
