Only if you are recording audio as well. The wiretapping law applies to secretly recording audio, not video. Edit: A good read, from the RCFP... http://www.rcf

- swixmix 17y agoIt's not very secret if you're holding up a cell phone. And if that is decidedly secret, then nobody should care as long as the unlawful audio is removed before distribution. I use the term unlawful audio because only the personally identifying information should need to be censored/removed.
- FahnRobier 17y agoI used "secret", probably shouldn't have. The article I referenced says that it varies by state, especially with regards to consent. Some states are single-party, some states require all party consent. But if you're on the street in public, you'd think everything is fair game... especially if you're a public servant. It's nice to see someone taking a stand and clearing it up (in one state at least).
