Insane idea here, have you thought about just asking him not to? "Hey neighbor, I was wondering if you might do me a small favor. I noticed your new drone, it's very cool. I'm sure you get lots of cool pictures and footage, but it makes me a little bit uncomfortable when you're flying over my garden and my home, do ya think you think you could still get your footage from outside of my property's airspace? Thanks pal,…

Seems to me with DIY method you aren't breaking any FCC regs (uses a wifi de-auth). Still I would do it out of direct line of sight (hidden/obscured area) in case operator catches you on camera.

> recording people without their consent is illegal in private space Not if it's visible from the public space. OP should check the local laws first. It's possible he had no recourse, depending on how high the drone flies. It's not like airplanes need your permission to fly over your property.
The air above your garden is not exactly 'public space'. People will put all kinds of visible barriers around their house to get some privacy, hovering your drone over those barriers is clearly a breach of sorts. Depending on where this is happening the laws will vary but here is one example from the UK: http://www.prettys.co.uk/drones-and-the-law

OP mentions that he doesn't know which neighbor owns the drone. If he's in a neighborhood like mine, he may only have line of sight of his most immediate neighbor and past that it could be any of dozens of other houses within close proximity.
He may have to follow the drone home next time he sees it.

I have a dji drone, even if you break the wifi connection, it will just return to "home". Unless you can spoof a gps signal, I don't know how you'd capture it.
