Deleted

As many of my previous threads have gone, I am deleting this. I don't know why I make them. 


What's interesting, is in having posting the original, it's repeatedly resurfacing a negative feeling I'd rather not have and had let go of until i posted it. Such is the power of social media.  Deleting this will help me forget about it.

  • Why is it that in merely existing as a human being, it's somehow assumed that I have automatically given consent to be photgraphed or videoed on a stranger's smart phone?

    There is no law agaist it so there is nothing you can do to stop it unfortunately. Dark glasses, a baseball cap and a fake moustache are the way to go ;)

    If you are in a public place then you are fair game if people want to photograph or video you.

    The law has judged that you have no such rights to privacy in public - not that you ever actually had this even in the olden days. When you are in private then there are a bunch of laws to protect you however.
