From ACLU to Californians. Legislators seriously considering surveillance drones to spy. Take action

ACLU of Northern CA ‏@ACLU_NorCal 2 Aug

Legislators seriously considering surveillance #drones to spy on Californians! Take action: http://bit.ly/14lWs0x


Tell the state Assembly: no blank checks for drones

Drones

A key Assembly committee is considering approving a bill, SB 15, that would give law enforcement a blank check when it comes to using drones – and we need your help to stop it. Drones pose significant threats to privacy because they can easily be used for warrantless mass surveillance.

Tell the state Assembly: don't approve drones without the proper privacy protections.
