Right, so what do you feel as right as the pilot doing it (vs the laws)?

I can’t get an answer like this. Usually, it’s pivoted to discussing the laws like this vs the accountability of the pilot for the changes in privacy of those they observe (vs someone flying around their own land).

How do you think re: I should/should not do a project like this?

To put a finer point on it, Google Earth and the related ingestion and use is controlled and guided by laws vs a drone pilot and their personal decisions beyond a license requirement. So not apples to apples. Again, candid not critical, I know pilots get a lot of nastiness about this stuff.
