Abstract

RAMIREZ LOPEZ, Santiago. From the battlefield to the streets: The privacy right in the drone era. Rev. Derecho Estado [online]. 2015, n.35, pp.181-199. ISSN 0122-9893.  https://doi.org/10.18601/01229893.n35.07.

While drone technology (from now on Unmanned Aircraft Systems or UAS) is not a novelty in the military world and it has been broadly documented, during the last years there has been an unexpected sales increase in this kind of equipment, now for civil, recreation and entertainment purposes. This has generated unprecedented legal problems, especially from the privacy point of view, which has made countries like United States to limit the use of UAS. This article aims to analyze the intimacy and privacy rights in the use of UAS from the United States and Colombian point of view, stating conclusions and possible paths to follow.

Keywords : Drone; UAS; intimacy right; protection of privacy; surveillance; IT Law; Colombia; United States of America.
