Drones and aerial photography

While I appreciate cities wanting to create some restrictions on drone usage, it seems to me attempts to restrain law enforcement — especially federal law enforcement — are quixotic at a local or even state level. If this is an attempt to restrict local and state law enforcement, forbidding the those agencies in particular of aerial photography of this sort would seem a more straightforward endeavor than forbidding it in general.

If this is a privacy bill, that's a somewhat different matter. But, even amended, this bill seems to ban everything from someone taking a picture of the ground from an overflying commercial air flight to Google Satellite pictures to … well pretty much anything where the camera is not mounted on the ground (with no functional difference given as to purpose — I mean, is a snooping photo taken from a nearby building or hilltop intrinsically any different from one in a drone or airplane?)
