What would be the lawful ‘commercial’ purpose?

“What would be the lawful ‘commercial’ purpose?”

News reporting comes to mind.

This morning I watched cell-phone “Periscope” coverage of the armed Leftists marching in AZ. That’s exactly the kind of group I’d want to “surveil” from a safe distance using a drone, and would be happy to sell that video. That group made it very clear to the right-there reporter that he did NOT have express permission of anyone being recorded.

Interesting that the summarized law might practically _require_ one to sell the images/video (thus invoking “lawful commercial purpose”), to use the drone to watch such a group; I don’t see a “personal use” exemption in that summary.
