You hear some stories that you feel someone has just thought up from a Sci-Fi film, but this one is in fact very real.
The news is about a new spy gadget the police are testing in the UK called the Microdrone, what it does is fly around the local area keeping an eye below with its built-in CCTV camera.
This really is technology straight out of the movies as what the policeman on the ground do is place a special visor on their head, which lets them see all that the Microdrone sees while he is controlling it (I wonder how many of these will fall out of the sky).
So as I live in the UK, I was wondering how everyone else in this country feels about having an eye above looking at all that you do.

So what I’m wondering is this: is anyone in the general area of Britain not under 24-hour surveillance? Seems you guys are becoming a closely monitored population.
I struggle to find any aspect of that I can deal with without having a good, old-fashioned Big Brother freak-out. I assume that being watched every day isn’t good for the soul, frankly.
Wow! i wonder how many kids are going to go get their BB guns and try to shoot these things out of the sky! If they were in the US, i probably would be out there trying to shoot them down XD
