Drones and Flights Over Private Property

Point/counterpoint on drones flying over private property.

Let the battle begin! In reality, it has already begun. What are the flight rules for drones when it comes to private property? See this Wall Street Journal article, Should You Be Allowed to Prevent Drones From Flying Over Your Property? which includes a point/counterpoint on drones and their ability to navigate over private property.

Personally I'm in agreement with the guy making the point that our laws need to keep up with new technologies or we'll become a "somewhat" backward society when it comes to technology in general and drones in particular.

I can just see your private security system companies selling "Your Drone Countermeasures Package" for only an additional $11.99 a month.
