I would say they should not generally be classified as "remote sensing systems." 'Cause you know someone would push things too far.

Can't think of anyone that ever take a situation and abuse it, push it too far, do something it wasn't intended to by its initial design... definitely wouldn't consider anyone such as law enforcement agencies or city, state or federal government doing any such thing... because you know, people are reasonable, right? </sardonic sarcasm tag>

I guess abusing loopholes is the monopoly of authority.

Sure, I was thinking of this specific case only. If someone starts to use tiny cameras in a way such that they are actually useful for remote sensing, then by all means regulate them.

Why should this be regulated at all?
