New York police to use drones to monitor backyard parties

Those people who will attend outdoor parties or barbecues in New York City this weekend may see an uninvited visitor monitoring their festivities, which will be a police surveillance drone.

The police department of New York City intends to drive the non-pilot drones in response to a lot of complaints about big gatherings, including personal occasions, over Labor Day weekend, officials announced on Thursday.

Kaz Daughtry, the assistant NYPD Commissioner, said at a press conference that if a caller says there’s a big gathering, a big party in a backyard, we’re going to be using our assets to move up and go monitor on the party.

The project attracted quick criticism from privacy and civil liberties advocates, increasing questions about whether such drone use disregarded existing rules for police guards.

Daniel Schwarz, a privacy and technology strategist at the New York Civil Liberties Union, directing to a 2020 city ordinance that demands the NYPD to reveal its surveillance tactics that it’s a disturbing statement and it flies in the facade of the POST Act, deploying drones in this path is a sci-fi boosted strategy.

The step was revealed during a protection briefing concentrated on J’ouvert, an annual Caribbean festival marking the ending of slavery that carries thousands of partiers and a heavy police existence to the streets of Brooklyn.

The unmanned aircraft would respond to non-priority and priority calls beyond the parade path, Daughtry said.

New York is increasingly depending on drones for policing purposes, like other cities. Data held by the city indicates that the police department has operated drones for public protection or emergency aims 124 times this year, up from just four times in all of 2022.

They were noticed in the skies after a parking garage tumble earlier this year and when a giveaway occasion devolved into teenage havoc.
