My city is considering the use of drones for police surveillance. Does any municipality have an existing policy that clearly provides guidelines to preserve and protect Constitutional rights, personal privacy and severe punishment for officers who violate these rights? Civilian oversight would be a plus.

I was just notified by email that the anonabox Kickstarter project has been suspended by Kickstarter for violating their TOS.
All funding has stopped and backers will not be charged for their pledges, according to the message.
A sad result, but you have to credit Kickstarter for their actions.

Look at almost any current Slashdot story and see loyal, long-time members rail against the new site design, willing to burn precious karma points to post off-topic rants against the new design and it being forced on users by the Dice Overlords. Discussion has begun to create an alternate site.
