Heads up for those of you living in Texas. The Texas House has passed HB 912, sending it over to the Senate. Effectively it makes it a Misdemeanor to capture any type of image of persons or property without permission.
You can read the proposed law at http://www.legis.state.tx.us/BillLookup/History.aspx?LegSess=83R&Bill=HB912. Read the 'engrossed' version which has all of the latest changes.
If you live in Texas you may want to contact both your state Senator and House representative. Make your voices heard.
It has lots of exceptions for all sorts of special interests. Yet nothing is exempted for hobby fliers (multirotor or aircraft) nor things like the movie industry.
