Re: video tape
Hello. Yes, it is illegal according to the federal eavesdropping statute. I am amazed that this law is not enforced as it should be. You have to get a person's permission, before you video tape them.... and posting the video to the internet could be said to be an invasion of privacy. Will be happy to answer any additional questions you may have.
