The development of drones has been coming along since the early 1900s; and at this point in time the pilotless technology has become very widespread.

Current Use Drones are currently used as a military tactic to fight the target force in war. They are also used for sky view photography or videography. A third use of drones is to commercially market brands by means of skywriting.

Potential Benefits There are many potential benefits to drones, some of these include possibly becoming a means of quicker transportation for mail or packages, high quality photography, as well as the ability to map out land or explore places never mapped.

Security Concerns A security concern associated with the use of drones is the violation of personal space and property when the cameras are in use. Drones give people the ability to spy on personal spaces while going unnoticed. These drones are automated and can record individuals without their knowledge or consent.

Legal and Ethical Issues Drones were one of President Barack Obama’s leading tools when targeting terrorists and in war. Unfortunately this is highly criticized due to the many unwarranted deaths of civilians in battle. This is a social and ethical concern because of these innocent lives being taken.
