Imposes limitations on the use of drones within the state

This bill restricts most drone surveillance by government entities in New York State. It prohibits law enforcement and state/local agencies from using drones to gather evidence without a search warrant, except in emergencies involving imminent danger to life. The law specifically bans drone monitoring inside homes, places of worship, or private property where people expect privacy. Exceptions include border patrols, counter-terrorism operations based on credible intelligence, and recreational drone use by individuals, with violations punishable as misdemeanors or felonies and inadmissible evidence rules.
