No. 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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.

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.
