An insect spy drone for urban areas is already in production, funded by the US Government. It can be remotely controlled and is equipped with a camera and a microphone.
It can land on you, and *may have* the potential to take a DNA sample or leave RFID tracking nanotechnology on your skin.
It can fly through an open window, or it can attach to your clothing until you take it in your home.
