Furious over drone invasion

Dear Sir,
Privacy has departed from Bermuda.
Let me tell you why.
On June 5, late afternoon, my wife and I were walking at the far end of Cooper’s Island.
Suddenly, we heard a sound like a giant bug, getting louder and louder.
We looked up and spotted a white drone hovering above us, complete with camera.
It stayed for a couple of minutes before “bugging out”.
Our privacy had been invaded ... wow. It was most startling.
Never had we had a “live” experience of drone surveillance before, and its proximity disturbed us.
I’m sure its controller was able to get a close-up of my shirt buttons.
This is our message to him: “Hey man, keep your drone away from us ... and next time, ask if you want to take a video or pictures of us. OK?”
