NACDL News: NACDL Launches Domestic Drone Information Center

On April 30, NACDL launched a new web resource called the Domestic Drone Information Center. NACDL’s Domestic Drone Information Center aims to be a one-stop source of cutting-edge information on the use of drones inside the United States. It collects news from leading publications across the nation; features a comprehensive listing of legislative developments; and contains sections devoted to relevant case law, scholarship, upcoming events, and data on drone usage.

Access to The Champion archive is one of many exclusive member benefits. It’s normally restricted to just NACDL members. However, this content, and others like it, is available to everyone in order to educate the public on why criminal justice reform is a necessity.

The Domestic Drone Information Center also aggregates existing material from other websites, making it a launching pad to additional information about domestic drones on the Web.

As domestic drones become an issue of increasing concern — the FAA predicts that 30,000 drones will be deployed within 20 years — NACDL members and the public will find this material useful. Visit the Domestic Drone Information Center at www.nacdl.org/domesticdrones. This project is supported by the Foundation for Criminal Justice and the Open Society Foundations.
