Later today, a congressional hearing will convene on domestic drone use–the second such hearing in three months. The hearing will continue teasing out the privacy implications of aerial surveillance systems, a sign that an increasing number of US citizens and policy makers alike are losing sleep over the thought potentially thousands of small-fry drones soon taking to American airspace. 

To see you, overly-paranoid human, through today’s hearing, we’ve gone ahead and collected a few choice tracks about the perils of being watched–or stalking, depending on where you fall. Look out.
