Make sure you use exactly that argument in the civil suit against you for the willful destruction of someone else's property.
You have no reasonable expectation of [visual] privacy anywhere that is plainly visible from ground level on the public right-of-way. Erect an opaque privacy barrier if you're worried about snooping cameras. Remember to have the utility lines marked before you dig your post holes.
Anyone, anywhere in the US, is free to photograph or video-record anything they can see, from any place they have a legal right to stand.
If you don't want your emitted photons captured by someone else, capture them yourself before they leave your property.
- opwieurposiu 7y agoI agree 100%, In a public space, any one has the right to capture any photons I may emit. And I have the right to choose the quantity and wavelength of photons I want to emit(1st amendment in USA, natural right everywhere). I can do this by wearing a white or black shirt for example. If your image sensor can't hang with the big boys, don't bring it to the playground.
- logfromblammo 7y agoIf you think is acceptable to emit a damaging level of photons in public, you are also espousing shining blinding green lasers into other people's eyeballs, or setting off EMP devices, or radio jammers, or even just using reflecting mirrors to shine bright sunlight into other people's faces. And if it is acceptable for you to do it to others, it is equally acceptable for others to do it to you. Perhaps you could think of people as Part 15 devices, with limits on emitted power and a commitment to not interfere with other users of the spectrum? Your right to flail your fists around wildly stops at the end of my nose.
