Re: ''Informative Info''
Except within one's home, one has no expectation of privacy under current law, and may be video/audio tape-recorded by law enforcement or anyone else without restriction. The rules are different within the walls of a private home, but anything which goes on in public is available to the public. Matters which should remain private, then, must be dealt with carefully outside the home. As a side note, the average American in a large city can expect to be on camera somewhere these days about 4 hours out of every 8.
