You walk around the street with a pair of eyes on your face, but that doesn’t mean you can just bend over and look up people’s clothing. The law clearly establishes a difference between capturing “normal” content in public and invading privacy.

- SkyPuncher 2y agoYes, and in California, where this article is based, there are explicit laws against this.
