I don't know where you live, but all kinds of filming in public is not in fact legal (and either way it shouldn't be): https://www.firstpost.com/explainers/japan-ban-upskirting-sex-crime-reforms-peeping-tom-voyeurism-laws-12537902.html

    Interesting. Where I live, no such ban exists. Sure it could be a good idea to ban some public filming, but where do you draw the line? I think that’s pretty much impossible to do right.

    Up-skirt filming is a good example of an easy line to draw. No filming at public beaches, gyms, pools, changing rooms are also hypothetically easy lines to draw. This isn't really that complicated.

    And what if a whale washes up on the shore? Can the local news agency film that?

    lol yes, there won't be any half naked people next to the smelly dying whale. Stop trolling

    I'm not trolling. You just made it illegal to film on beaches!

    I'm just illustrating that you can't draw a line here.
