According to CBS New York, the mayor believes that the thousands of surveillance cameras already mounted all around the city are not enough, but that a program of unmanned surveillance drones would not be a significant incursion into resident’s privacy. ‘What’s the difference whether the drone is up in the air or on a building?’ the mayor asked. ‘I have trouble making the distinction.'”
