But you can already do that.

This discussion isn't about what's polite.

It's about what you think ought to be against the law. And being fined or thrown in jail if you break the law.

I was really thinking of imposing a framework where people know someones preference even when looking at the videos later. I would be fine even if there is no fine, if someone found me on one of your photos and say - look a lanyard, what a jerk for putting that online, without any additional consequence. EU came into my mind because of the existing GDPR and as a platform where this could be propagated. No I would generally not want anyone to go to jail even it the footage wracks my life somehow, but I would want a mechanism to broadcast my preference to the recording world.

You can wear a lanyard today!

BUT it has no meaning in the society, does it?

I think this is a key difference between US and Europe.

It seems like you believe that if the government passed a law then it will have meaning in society? It's still as meaningless as if you just wore one today.
