Make drones follow the DPA with pilots having to pass a course with a license.
Make drones licensed under Data Protection Act with pilot having to pass a course with a license. We need to have peoples data protected with copyright material for company privacy.
The law would mean people would come under a government body that regulate the use of drones. The body can strip rights away for improper use by pilots of drones in the UK. The method could kill other crimes with it under the data protection act. The articles could be expanded with increase use and stop terrorism spying with it.

Operators of drones are already subject to the Data Protection Act:
