    I don't like it when I'm recorded without my consent. But people do that with their phones all the time for TikTok videos, for meta videos, for YouTube videos. Nobody yet has demanded that smartphones be banned or that cameras be removed from smartphones.

    It smacks of hypocrisy to me. Either ban them all or allow them all.

      Yeah, and it's got to be that we allow them all.

      I don't like it, but this is happening. And while we can frown on it socially, it would be self-defeating to ask our government to ban filming in public.
