I feel quote uneasy about stuff being recorded and sent to big corps routinely with cameras strapped to random bystander faces. I'm much more bothered by the fact this gets sent to a central location and processed than mere fact of being recorded without consent. However, even with this uneasy feeling, one has to recognise a street is a public space and I don't see how one can have reasonable expectation of complete privacy there. There is nothing rude about recording what you can see. The privacy expectation I have is not that my picture will not be captured, but that such recordings from many unrelated people will not be aggregated to trace my movements . So in summary, I think everyone has a right to photograph or record whatever they like in a public space, but the action of pooling all such recordings, and running face tracking on them to track individual people (or build a database of movements, whatever) is breaching these people's privacy and there should be laws against it. |
