I would like to share an even more extrem version of this.
I come from a country that could be potentially affected by the Russian-Ukranian war.
A couple of years ago, the government presented a program for volunteers, consisting of a military crash-course over a weekend to get to know the basics. Military service is voluntary in my country, so I thought it might actually be a good idea to have had a rifle in my hand at least once. You never know.
So I decided to sign up and got a few documents to sign. One of them was explicit consent for the organizing party to use any pictures taken during the training in order to use it as promotional material. No opt-out possible.
You understand? They could take pictures of me during a voluntary training, and post them on Facebook or anywhere on the Internet!
I even sent them an email asking to clarify and if I could opt out. They refused and would not allow me to participate if I didn't accept.
- tintor 1y agoThat is a positive example of respecting consent: They asked for consent before filming. You disagreed and didn't participate. They didn't record you and didn't publish video of you.
