There is no "absolute right to privacy in public", of course.
But distributing or handing over such material is limited and requires usually consent.
Please pay special attention to the second sentence of the cited paragraph.
- Godel_unicode 4y agoNo it doesn’t. That consent is gated around violating their legitimate purpose (see the other words in that second paragraph). So in general just posting stuff/uploading to TikTok/facebook/etc does not require consent and you don’t have a right to have it taken down without specific cause.
- still_grokking 4y agoNo, that's wrong. We're talking here about rights that are derived directly form the first sentence of the German constitution! Such right is very strong. Only in exceptional cases it can be overruled by other constitutional rights.

- Godel_unicode 4y agoYou should tell your Supreme Court that, they just ruled that street photography is constitutionally protected art.
