Wow, you're right. If only I'd made a somewhat lengthy post explaining how I thought this ought to go. Something like
any recording of individuals not considered public figures, made for the purpose of broadcast or dissemination, must be authorized for release by the subject(s) of the recording
Also, way to fucking nitpick the example instead of addressing the overall substance of my concern, that blanket surveillance in public shouldn't be allowed.
I hate this goddamn site.
I hope I won't be crucified for the suggestion being imperfect.
I'm a prophet
"No expectation of privacy in public spaces" is a completely broken mentality.
Over on feddit.uk I saw [this](https://feddit.uk/post/5717909) fun thread, with multiple people confidently claiming "anyone who is in a public place can have no reasonable expectation of privacy". (If I screwed up my link, sorry, I'm still not great at more than posting comments.) That may be a legally correct understanding,...
on youtube I watched a British reality show about airports and (mostly foreign) passengers being searched for anything illegal. What I find troubling is that many of these passengers speak very little English and find it difficult to articulate an answer to what officers ask in English. I remember an Indian national who didn’t speak any English that though he had the right visa to work in the UK, only to find he had been duped by an Indian scammer and was refused entry. He started crying and the crew filmed the whole scene. This is humiliating to say the least and I wouldn’t want this to happen to me if I visit the UK. My questions: * Should a reality crew start recording me, do I have a right to my image and can I tell them to stop recording me? Do tv crews respect that? * What about the police? Can they record my face, even if I don’t consent? * I also have a cultural question: If an officer at a British airport asks you if he can search your luggage and you say no and you ask him if you are under arrest, what happens then?
I haven't seen all of Discovery, Enterprise, or DS9 so I'm completely unqualified to participate in this, but I'll make a write-in vote for Original-flavor T'Pring. Biiiiiiiishhhhhhh
SNW T'Pring though, I love her. She's got actual depth and I can empathize with her.
Runner-up: TOS T'Pau. Stuck-up xenophobe, plus they gave her that dumb early modern English dialogue of thees and thous that was supposed to convey ancient wisdom or something but they conjugated it all wrong and it's annoying as hell
