    If you’re holding a camera all good I can see you’re definitely trying to record me. If you’re trying to be slick and record me with your secret little spy glasses I literally couldn’t care less about what’s legal or not.

      There are cameras everywhere anyways. Don’t act a way you want on film if you’re outside your home, otherwise there’s a chance it’s being recorded and there’s nothing you can do about it 🤷

          I don’t like surveillance either, but as it currently stands, you have no expectation of privacy in public.

          So as long as there are surveillance cameras, it would be stupid to forbid any civilian filming in public.

        Might not be anything I can do about you recording me but I can act in a way that will make you think twice about recording the next person

          No you won’t. I’m might set up a camera on the sidewalk outside your house tomorrow, and there’s nothing you could do about it. Nothing. You’re not in charge.

            You think so? You think you have a right to install your camera on public property?

            There are usually peeping tom laws that prevent this kind of thing, and it’s certainly cause for a civil harassment case if the person you’re spying on knows about it.

            The real question is: why do you want the ability to film someone’s house like that unless you’re a creeper?

              Not install, but hold. Yes, I do have that right where I live.

      Plus, the law doesn’t concern your feelings. It doesn’t matter if you like something or not, if it’s legal, it’s legal.

          No, it’s not the same indeed. If something is “correct” is a (shared) opinion. Another person might disagree and consider other things correct. That’s what freedom looks like.
