My personal opinion is that concealed filming in public should be illegal. Open filming should be courteous, and if someone requests they not be filmed (and they’re not a public figure/government employee), the filmer should honor that.

Otherwise, I see no problem with it, and I’ve been filmed in public a LOT.

My opinion is that concealed filming be inadmissible in court without a “warrant” to allow its entry as evidence. Prosecutors have to state what they hope the concealed video will contain, and only that portion can be used.

Too many missing people for me to agree entirely that concealed filming is completely bad.
