Not really, it's antisocial behavior either way. This is just splitting hairs anywhere but a courtroom.

Anyway, a mall is a public space in the context of recording without consent. You have no reasonable expectation of privacy. The law needs to be updated to reflect the vastly more invasive technology we have now compared to when these statutes were written to reflect actual social mores.

malls have been held to be public spaces, but not the insides of the stores.
