John Q. Wageslave loves them, they keep him safe.
This. I think the average wageslave is socialized to think that living in a pervasive security state is the only thing that keeps him safe from the hordes of SINless trog sociopaths waiting just outside the gates of the corp's housing community to murder-rape him. I think most of the time they would barely take note of a spy drone circling overhead or whatnot. Its not necessarily that they don't notice- they are just conditioned not to care.
They would get nervous if for some reason it becomes patently obvious that someone other than a corp security official (like a shadowrunner) is using spy drones to surveil them, but mostly they just don't question it.
