Oppose what, that you can be filmed or photographed without explicit consent when you’re in public? So if I go to the Eiffel Tower, I have to go and ask the hundreds of other people there if they consent to me taking their photo simply because they’re in my photo? Or if I see a criminal breaking into a house, I have to ask them if I can take their photo/video if I want to report them and hand over my photos/video to the police?

Perhaps your future camera could automatically fog any individual that you haven’t received prior consent from. And yes, I realise this idea has a number of technological requirements that may not exist yet, or cannot reliably exist ever, and requires the trusting of some authority in a world where noone of that esteem seem to be able to exist.

Snapping a photo or video of your family or a landmark for your personal memories that happens to have some other people in the background is a hell of a lot different than sending a constant stream of everyone you’re looking at along with location data to Facebook, Google, the government, and whoever the fuck else. I shouldn’t have to explain this to you. And yes if you’re going to be uploading someones image online I do think you should have their permission.
