In public? How does this work in practice? There are so many uses for cameras and avoiding showing people would be impossible.
Eg dash cams, security cameras.

In many places you’re allowed to take wide shots where people might be captured incidentally, though not everywhere, as some places don’t allow photos of “copyrighted” buildings and landmarks.
