The European Commission published a comprehensive report evaluating
the privacy impact of drones (referred to in the report as RPAS or
remotely piloted aircraft systems), finding that Europe’s existing
regulatory framework is adequate to address the emergent technology.
The 378 page report found that the current European and Member State
regulatory framework was “adequate to address the privacy, data
protection and ethical impacts” of drones because those rules are
technology neutral. The report noted that rights to privacy and data
protection frameworks in Europe included provisions for addressing
various risks. While the regulatory structure in Europe is adequate,
the report noted that the biggest problems associated with drones may be
educating the industry about their obligations, and enforcing the
regulatory mechanisms that are already in place.
The report’s authors
also believed that drones should “include privacy-by-design features in
all data collection and processing activities” (a reform I encourage
U.S. legislators to consider in this white paper).
