When I'm in public, I'm not in private. Someone can follow me, photograph me, call their friends daily and tell them what I'm wearing -- all legal.
Public is the opposite of private.
It doesn't mean that someone can harass or threaten me, but they certainly can track my public movements and there's nothing I can do about it.

said by TomClancy:You do that and I call the cops. What is going to happened? When you are in public, you do not have "a reasonable expectation to privacy"... if you don't want to be photographed, if you don't want to be watched, you have a right to stay out of the public square, in your home, behind your curtains, where you DO have a reasonable expectation of privacy.
If you call the cops, they will tell you the same thing.
Ever heard of the cases constantly be tossed out of court recently regarding this? Girls/boys gone bad? (The ones where they film people at Mardi-Gras or Spring Break acting fools and selling it?) How about the cases where someone was in public in a restaurant and her photo was shot and sold (sorry, forget the name, but recently on CNN & Fox News).. all tossed out.
When you are in public, you can't expect that what you do wont be captured on some sort of media, and used, because it can.
Now stalking.. there are very specific conditions that have to be met prior to you using THAT as a claim. | |
