>> [_] Anon 2432601 >># It's just a camera. You don't have to lose your shit.
>> [_] Anon 2432602 Calm down, guys.
>> [_] Anon 2432605 >># You seriously don't get how people would have a problem with this?
>> [_] Anon 2432613 the reason why people get agressive is that they don't know with what purpose are they getting filmed so here comes the imagination flowing through their scared little minds so imho they are being too precautious that's all
>> [_] Anon 2432615 >># It's not like he's filming them in their own fucking houses or something.
>> [_] Anon 2432617 >># I do, but people are still overly aggressively.
>> [_] Anon 2432624 Isn't it illegal to film people without their permission?

>> [_] Anon 2432640 I understand is annoying. but, you people need to calm the fuck down.
>> [_] Anon 2432643 >># You have no expectation of privacy in a public place. If you don't want to be photographed or videotaped, don't go outdoors. If there were any kind of laws against photographing or recording people without their express permission, photography would be absolutely fucked. Big news story? Well, too bad, you gotta get permission from all 200 people gawking at the house burning down or the giant pileup on the highway. On vacation and want to take photos? Better get permission from everybody else at the Statue of Liberty that day or you might take someone's photo on accident. Big crowd at the convention? Might as well forget it, someone might flip out if you're taking a picture of someone while they're standing behind them. What amuses me is how people get intensely riled up about Joe Sixpack with his smartphone or Douche McFaggot with his Google Glasses when nobody cares about surveillance cameras recording everything you do, everywhere you do.
>> [_] Anon 2432645 he fucking followed him, what do you expect?
>> [_] Anon 2432657 >># >What amuses me is how people... Um, that was the point of this video. However, I think there's more to it than that. First of all, 7-Elevens and Banks and such have an unambiguous and well-known motive for operating security cameras. Nobody has to ask "why is that camera here? What are you going to do with the video?" They are also confined to well-defined "private" spaces. Some banks and such have cameras on the outside of the building too, but they are clearly intended to secure their own premises. (field too long)
>> [_] Anon 2432658 >># In germany we have this regulation that it's allowed to take pictures of people, but you're not allowed to publish them without their permission. Exception is if the picture isn't explicitely about them and they just happen to be on it like on a group shot or in the background.
>> [_] Anon 2432659 >># (continued) A guy on the street holding a video camera at eye-level is not equivalent to these security cameras at all. For one, this cameraman singled individuals out, rather than merely recording an entire area. He filmed people in public spaces that aren't owned by anybody, in which people do not expect to be recorded. When you walk into a store you aren't surprised in the least to see a camera there, but when you are talking on the phone on the sidewalk, you don't expect to be recorded. Finally, the biggest difference here is that this cameraman's intentions are totally unclear. People wouldn't react like this if they were accidentally photographed by tourists, because they understand immediately why the picture is being taken and what it is being used for. People don't react like this when they walk by a TV camera set up in front of a news reporter, either--if anything, they are excited and curious about what newsworthy event is happening.
>> [_] Anon 2432662 >># Germany also has laws prohibiting certain uses of a four-sided shape. It's not comparable to a situation in a country with extremely broad personal freedoms.
>> [_] Anon 2432664 >># freedom stops where the freedom of other people begins
>> [_] Anon 2432666 >># What about my freedom not to suffer your existence? Does that give me the right to kill you? Etc. In the United States, this catchy little platitude is not applicable.
>> [_] Anon 2432667 that guy eating french fries while listening to opera or whatever
>> [_] Anon 2432669 >># Are you stupid? It's exactly the other way round. You don't have the right to kill me because I have the right to live.
>> [_] Anon 2432672 >># Protesters have the right to shout at me even if it annoys me when I'm on my way to the abortion clinic.
>> [_] Anon 2432673 >># Americans aren't known to be particularly smart.
>> [_] Anon 2432676 >># Yes they do. However they do not have the right to stop you. Because they don't have unlimited freedom. It stops where your rights begin. I really don't get how you have a hard time grasping this concept
>> [_] Anon 2432679 murica discusson incoming bump for continued butthurt
>> [_] Anon 2432681 >># That's true but there's a difference between doing something as a form or art or informational purposes and stepping into peoples business establishments (private property), and personal space (anywhere less than 1 - 3 ft (0.3 to 0.9m) ) without explicit permission.. This guy was harassing people in public with his camera and stepping into private establishments to film without permission.
>> [_] Anon 2432683 >># >># finally, I've understood this from day 1 it's good to see others get the point of these videos as well
>> [_] Anon 2432685 >># What about my right to have a peaceful abortion?

>> [_] Anon 2432697 >># >is there any country where you could do this and 90% of them WOULDN'T flip the fuck out? Almost everywhere, including America. No on minded all the surveillance cameras on every street corner, they seem pretty chill about it. They're also pretty all right with NSA spying and sorting through all their private discussions.
>> [_] Anon 2432714 >># Nothing if I'm in public place and there is no expectation of privacy.
>> [_] Sage01 2432716 People who complain about their privacy in public spaces in acountry that disrespects their privacy outside of and in public spaces always make me laugh. Fucking tools man.
>> [_] Anon 2432734 let me guess two kinds of people in this thread those who have a good time while enjoying the political message camera guy puts out and those redditor government cocksuckers who say WELL ITS DIFFERENT WHEN THE GOVERNMENT DOES IT THIS GUY IS AN ASSHOLE I HOPE HE DIES!
>> [_] Anon 2432744 >># Just Eurotards vs. Amerifats. Stereotypes everywhere, etc.
>> [_] Anon 2432746 >># Yeah, much love to him
>> [_] Anon 2432748 >># That guy seemed baked off his ass. Seemed like a decent fellow though. also >zzz- >(glances at camera) >hullo... >hi... >zzzzz
>> [_] Anon 2432754 Imagine instead, a man walked up to you, stood within your comfort zone, and just stared at you. I don't think it's the camera. I think we are naturally offput by perverts. And when they have a camera, it leaves little to our faith that he's just doing it accidentally. Personally, if someone was watching me, camera or no, I'd get aggressive. Just like if random strangers butted into my conversations. Or someone came really close to me and started flashing mouthfuls of chewed up food in their mouth at me. None of it's illegal, and it's not harming me at all. But the powerlessness of being unable to legally put a stop to it is enough to make me rage. It only takes one socially retarded asshole to send someone into a fury.
>> [_] Anon 2432760 I would of just acted cool and then grab and smash his camera. Who the fuck does this unless you a troll anyway.
>> [_] Anon 2432766 >># >># I'm a Shitpostralian that considered pretending to be both European and American to egg both sides on but I guess I don't really need to.
>> [_] Anon 2432770 >># >would of Nobody cares about your opinion, gradeschooler.
>> [_] Anon 2432773 >># This man has pointed it out. These people are afraid of not being able to stop him. He isn't doing anything wrong, nor illegal, but they simply don't like it so they get angry and make noise like babies because there is nothing they can do to stop him. Some threaten to call the cops because they think the police will do something, but he leaves by the time they arrive, so ultimately there is no accountability held upon him. While I would go about this in a different manner, maybe informing people of what is happening, Surveillance Man is just a man holding a camera and pointing out the paranoia that a lot of people have these days
>> [_] Anon 2432778 >># grammar nazi HAHAHAHAHAHA
>> [_] Anon 2432782 >># Thank you for proving my point.
>> [_] Anon 2432785 This man is my hero! He's just started a movement. i had no idea you could have this level of fun with a complete lack of any structured plans
>> [_] Anon 2432791 I have a problem when government does this AND when random people do this. Maybe even more so random people. I have social anxiety and slight paranoia so if someone came up to me to film me, I'd be really irked and would probably lash out and or cry after asking nicely for them to stop. It's almost the equivalency of a sibling putting their finger reallll close to you and repeatedly saying "I'm not touching you." Only with a stranger. And then somehow claiming it's some political message.
>> [_] Anon 2432795 >># >stepping into people's business establishments That's not protected space. You can record on private property all you want. Someone in a position of authority can tell you to leave (after which you'd be trespassing if you refuse) but they're not legally able to take your camera or ask you to delete pictures/video. >># >an unambiguous and well-known motive Treating me like a criminal before I've even stepped foot in the store?
>> [_] Anon 2432796 >># >Treating me like a criminal before I've even stepped foot in the store? I addressed that, faggot. If the employee behind the counter held a camera right in your fucking face--you, personally, and nobody else--you would get mad too. The cameras in a store don't target any one person individually, they are just surveillance of the premises.

For what reason do people feel the need to touch the camera or intimidate the person filming? It's like they don't understand that they've already been filmed, and doing that only makes them look psychotic (the getting violent part). Fucking hell man. Just roll with it, because unless you plan on murdering the videographer, it's going to get posted somewhere.
