Frankly, I find the reasoning tenuous. Their thesis is that the appearance of tiny flying vehicles bearing cameras that could peek at you when you are naked in the bathroom will cause enough outrage that tougher privacy laws will be passed.

Could Domestic Surveillance Drones Spur Tougher Privacy Laws?

Typically, there are enough people who want to see information on other people that legislation prohibiting violations of privacy could have a difficult time being passed. "The intent of such surveillance is to catch criminals," they say. It would also be a difficult law to enforce.
Still, what will celebrities do in such a world? When the paparazzi get their pictures from swarms of tiny cameras, what defense will a public figure have? It would seem nearly impossible to hide from all such cameras.
