    Personally, i only approve if you’re filming a crime (counting harassment here). If someone’s going about their day, even if they’re making a scene or wearing something crazy or what have you, I don’t really think filming them without their knowledge is cool, especially if you’re going to post it on the internet.

      Problem is when you are in puic spaces you have no expectation of privacy. And are probably being filmed already.

        Security cameras are everywhere in and around buildings/homes. Dash cams are pretty common these days and some even record when the car is off and alone. Someone is filming a vlog or some snap/insta/tiktok clip in the area.

        I understand that, but it doesn’t mean I need to respect or approve of anybody who does film people in public. Sitting next to a stranger on an otherwise empty bus isn’t illegal either, but that doesn’t mean the person isn’t still a creep for doing it. And I am considering being the subject of a film as different from happening to pass by a camera frame, or being seen by a security camera.
