How do we get private individuals in public?

  Twitter’s Platform, Twitter’s Rules, which can be more constraining than legal or regulatory requirements.

    Of course. However, they do need to communicate what they believe private individuals in public means as well as consent. Just watch. This will see very inconsistent selective enforcement. That will be rightfully objected to. As worded, one cannot show almost all images including people other than the author of said image.

      One of the Instagram accounts I follow is called @climingawesome, which is images that have been DM'ed to @climbingawesome for the purpose of being posted in @climbingawesome's public feed. So all of the images are of people climbing. I don't know if the account holder even is a climber, and that leads to my tentative conclusion that all of the images are of "other people". And the vast majority of climbers are not Alex Honnold, and likely to be considered private individuals. > As worded, one cannot show almost all images including people other than the author of said image. If Twitter had such an account, it seems like it would now be canceled in order to be consistent with such an interpretation as this.

        I just saw something the other day about street photography in Norway. Apparently it's illegal, like almost an inverse of the very permissive US law, which carries no expectation of privacy in public at all.
