The Guardian 2013- Dan Roberts, “FBI admits to using surveillance drones over US soil” http://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/jun/19/fbi-drones-domestic-surveillance The FBI has admitted it sometimes uses aerial surveillance drones over US soil, and suggested further political debate and legislation to govern their domestic use may be necessary.¶ Speaking in a hearing mainly about telephone data collection, the bureau's director, Robert Mueller, said it used drones to aid its investigations in a "very, very minimal way, very seldom".¶ However, the potential for growing drone use either in the US, or involving US citizens abroad, is an increasingly charged issue in Congress, and the FBI acknowleged there may need to be legal restrictions placed on their use to protect privacy.¶ "It is still in nascent stages but it is worthy of debate and legislation down the road," said Mueller, in response to questions from Hawaii senator Mazie Hirono.¶ Advertisement¶ Hirono said: "I think this is a burgeoning concern for many of us."¶ Dianne Feinstein, who is also chair of the Senate intelligence committee, said the issue of drones worried her far more than telephone and internet surveillance, which she believes are subject to sufficient legal oversight.¶ "Our footprint is very small," Mueller told the Senate judiciary committee. "We have very few and have limited use."¶ He said the FBI was in "the initial stages" of developing privacy guidelines to balance security threats with civil liberty concerns.¶ It is known that drones are used by border control officials and have been used by some local law enforcement authorities and Department of Homeland Security in criminal cases.

ACLU 2014- American Civil Liberties Union, June 27, “STINGRAYS: The Most Common Surveillance Tool the Government Won't Tell You” Abouthttps://www.aclunc.org/sites/default/files/StingRays_The_Most_Common_Surveillance_Tool_the_Govt_Won%27t_Tell_You_About.pdf “STINGRAYS: The Most Common Surveillance Tool the Government Won't Tell You About” Federal and state law enforcement entities across the country are using a powerful cell phone surveillance tool commonly referred to as a “Sting Ray.” These devices are capable of locating a cell phone with extraordinary precision, but to do so they operate in dragnet fashion, scooping up information from a target device, as well as other wireless devices in the vicinity. In addition, these devices can be configured to capture the content of voice and data communications. Although the federal government has been using these devices since at least 1995, and use by state and local governments is quite widespread, there are only a handful of published opinions addressing their use.
