Good Intentions Bad Law
Bill to seek crackdown on ’video stalking’
Take away the exemptions for Police, private investigators, security guards and the media and maybe we could start to talk about it.
The fact is that when you are in a public place you are not entitled to privacy from the other people around you and if you exempt these "special groups" and the government then what you actually do is destroy the publics right to observe and record - even in their own defense.
Now if a person is being harassed then there are laws to handle that, video or not and somebody in that state os not appying existing laws and this is not the way to solve such a problem, it's a way to hide things from public record.
