Abstract
This research paper examines the impact of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), notably drones, on contemporary society and analyses the legal challenges and potential human rights and privacy violations associated with their widespread use. Specifically, the article focuses on the issues of invasion of privacy, illegal collection and use of personal data, and illegal display and distribution of information. The main goal of this work is to emphasise the need for legal regulation of the use of drones, which balances human rights and freedoms, addresses security and privacy, and also promotes the development of technologies in this area. It should be noted that drones have opened up new opportunities in various fields of industry such as environmental monitoring, agriculture, medical care and intelligence service. However, along with these advantages, there are serious legal problems that require special attention of the legislation. The article provides examples of legal regulation, analyses the use of drones in the USA, EU, Japan and the Netherlands, which can be taken as a basis for the development and improvement of national legislation in other countries. The peculiarities of the legislative process in these countries are considered, as well as limitations in the existing legislation. The main areas of regulation include: • restriction of access to airspace, • setting the minimum distance from settlements and objects, • control over the use of cameras and other data collection devices, • application of sanctions for violation of established rules. An important aspect of regulation is establishing the liability of drone operators and their owners in case of violations of safety, privacy and human rights regulations. The authors emphasise the need to create mechanisms to control and monitor compliance with the rules for the use of drones and the protection of personal data. The article also describes proposals for improving drone legislation and policy, including the development of security and privacy standards, conducting educational programs for drone owners, and providing citizens with access to information on the rules of the use of drones. In conclusion, this scientific article emphasises the importance of legal regulation on the use of drones to ensure a balance between human rights and freedoms, data security and privacy, as well as the development of technologies in this area. Analysing the experience of the USA, the EU, Japan and the Netherlands, it is possible to highlight the development and improvement of national legislation in other countries that are facing similar legal challenges.
