Just like the movie stars pictures are taken? Would you feel like that is infringing on your personal space? Does the average person have rights when it comes to someone taking an unknowing picture of them with a camera phone?

If I am out in public, then it could happen more than I know about especially living in San Francisco. Don't care. Now sneaking pictures say through the windows of my house with a telephoto lens or something? I'd have a problem with that.

First i would be amused that the taker had nothing better to do than snap pictures of me walking out of the grocers or buying gas...then I'd walk away and forget it.

Who really cares?
The bottom line is always: What are you really gonna do about it?

Go balistic? Why...he's done no harm, and Big Brother takes your picture every day without your consent.

Now if he's planning a new series called "Old Folks Gone Wild!", then I may have a problem with it...

No point worrying about little things that are beyond your control.

An average person does have rights to their person. If you can prove the picture was taken without your consent (no permission papers), no witnesses to asking if they could, you have a case.
A 'star' doesn't really have rights as such, because they are 'public'. If the picture was taken out of the public eye, (ie in their backyard etc. THEN they have rights)
Talk to a lawyer...get copies of the picture and the name and address of the person who took the picture. Any witnesses to the picture taking...

A normal picture... I wouldnt care...

now if they were using their camera phone to take pictures up my skirt or something... well... thats different... and has been done to me at the grocery store (the gross part is that I was 12 at the time and the guy had to have been 40).

I have much more to occupy my time then worrying about that. As for movie stars, they throw themselves into the public forum. They do outrageous things then expect people to ignore it. Personal space? they gave up that right. I do not have a guilty conscience, so it does not bother me.

I'd have to see the picture first. I might be upset if somebody used my picture to make money without my permission...or if my pants were down.

The police would not have an interest in the initiating, yet shop urgent it, and additionally refer to them approximately invasion of privateness.

If you're in public, that's just what it means, public. Don't have to like it but that's what I think.


Odd that young girls(?) always have a story about a dirty old man but the majority of pedophiles are around 30.

Why not? Picture me on the web or any TV show. I could be somebody.

I do not want my picture to be taken, but when I am being paid to lecture, I shut up and allow it.
It comes with the job
