And in the latest installment of “breaking news” that shouldn’t surprise you at all…

…FBI Director Robert S. Mueller III admitted that the United States has used drones over US airspace.  It was the first time an FBI official publicly admitted such a program exists, but if you want to believe pop culture (the latest Bourne installment, a recent Castle episode, the Call of Duty video game), drone use is more common than we think.

What we know:

  • Drones (or unmanned, remotely piloted aircraft) have been used since the early 1900s, for various purposes, primarily military and law enforcement, though there are increasing demands for public use.
  • The Drug Enforcement Agency and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives have both tested drones for use in investigations.
  • The Federal Aviation Administration has to approve all drone use in US airspace.
