UPDATE: From the comments:

The White House geofence is only the second one that isn’t centered on an airport, according to Perry—the first was Tiananmen Square.

Know your place peasants. The government is allowed to fly drones over you, but you’re not allowed to fly drones over them.

Know your place, indeed.
