The method demonstrated in the video is problematic for a commoner like me to apply, since it not only comes with serious electrical hazards when handling the high voltage capacitor in the microwave, but it also comes with the risk of endangering other peoples electronics, causing fire hazards or affecting radiological infrastructure that is protected by law.
Our entire house, containing eight households, are furious at our neighbors living across the street, because they are flying their drone up to our windows and hover. It is equipped with something that resembles a lens.
I'd shoot it down, but that leaves a trail and is not subtle. I really don't want to risk my gun "career", since I want to get licensed for heavier caliber sometime next year.
The police don't do nothing about it, since it's not illegal to maneuver in populated areas. It's neither directly illegal to film people, even though they indirectly could be charged with harassment. I don't have or want to spend the funds for a civil lawsuit.
Not a lawyer and have just a very locally soecific anecdote, but, I know in my home town there was a case where a dude liked to chill naked in his back yard behind his huge privacy fence. A Karen climbed a tree near his property to photograph him and took him to court. The judge wound up threatening her, citing some statute like she went through "extensive effort" or something to be able to see it, that he was not plainly visible and could expect privacy.
In my experience cops mostly just want everyone to shut up and say whatever they think will make that happen. Maybe consult an attorney? Seems like flying a drone to your window is pretty extensive effort to get a view where you should be able to expect privacy.
