Re: environmental surveillance (call me paranoid)

Technically, such surveillance technologies would fall under video surveillance, but I have no clue if current EU legislation covers such technologies. I have some scientific literature on drones for use in protected areas, but do not recall bird and insect like drones mentioned specifically.
The movie Eye in the Sky (2015) shows use of a sophisticated drone disguised as a fly for audio and video surveillance. Whether this technology actually exists now is the question, but swarms of such miniature drones controlled by an central AI would be possible and could pose nightmare scenarios.
