San Francisco police want to use drones in car chases
- JumpCrisscross 3y ago> idea of having drivers flee police cars as well as having to look over the shoulder to figure out where the police drone is as well doesn’t seem like a recipe for safer police car chases Sorry, what? We're concerned for the wellbeing of the person fleeing the cops? Is this man an idiot? > he fears increased drone use could result in privacy violations and higher levels of surveillance of communities of colo Prop E specifically requires these data be treated "consistent[ly] with all applicable City poliicies on data and privacy" [1]. I'm seeing nothing here that is remotely convincing. Prop E is broader than drones for car chases. But replacing a speeding cop car with drones seems like an obvious improvement. I'm shocked it even needs a referendum to be implemented.
