The most private people I know would not ban all public recordings or to share all public recordings. They would ban with some exceptions to share recordings of people without their consent. Some would ban to keep recordings without consent. And they would not ban this if street photographers or so respected other people.
> But if this were law, so too goes the guy I saw in a park fire spinning,
He would have been there without you seemingly. Everyone who saw him there would have seen him. You meant your recording?
> so too goes the joy I captured on a strangers face at seeing a beautiful chandelier,
They would have seen the chandelier and felt joy without you seemingly. You meant your recording?
Did you ask to send them a copy? Did you ask to keep it? Did you ask to share it?

A recording of a person and a recording of nature which happens to have people in the background are different. And some countries understood this when they made their laws.
- JK-Swizzle 1mo agoFor those examples, yes, I was meaning the recording rather than the event. I find a pretty or emotional visual is better to describe moments like that than just words. And no, I did not discuss this with the people in the images. I only share these things in person so I am not too concerned with it spreading. On occasion I will offer a copy for the person (often the time I realize I have a good photo is weeks after the fact). Do you have countries in mind? Photography laws fascinate me, so I’d love to read more. I only really know about the US. For the examples I gave, I used a situation with implied consent but not explicit (a person performing in public), a situation with neither implied nor explicit (a layperson in public), and a situation that may not need consent (a non human subject with people visible). It would be interesting to know if each of those would be handled differently.
