Even though it’s technically private property, being open to the public makes it public space. II. If you are on public property, you can take pictures of private property. If a building, for example, is visible from the sidewalk, it’s fair game. III. If you are on private property and are asked not to take pictures, you are obligated to honour that request. This includes posted signs. IV. Sensitive government buildings (military bases, nuclear facilities) can prohibit photography if it is deemed a threat to national security. V. People can be photographed if they are in public (without their consent) unless they have secluded themselves and can expect a reasonable degree of privacy. Kids swimming in a fountain? Okay. Somebody entering their PIN at the ATM? Not okay. There's a bit more at the source. Great clip! If you don't know your rights, then you don't have any rights. Rights or not, no one better take a pic of me without asking me first! I am way too vain |
