Realtors Warned Not to Hire Unmanned Aircraft

The California Association of Realtors(CAR) was warned that aerial photos of properties have shown up on websites and appear to be taken by un-permitted unmanned aircraft. CAR has sent out a warning to Realtors not to hire unmanned aircraft as it may violate local and federal statutes. First of all, I can’t believe someone is monitoring all those websites so closely to have pinpointed something like this and secondly, the whole thing sounds very ‘Big Brother’ and rather like the next work they’ll be using is ‘terror’ in some form. I guess the only terror will be the look on that particular Realtor’s face when someone other than a buyer shows up on the doorstep asking about that photo!
