Anyone or anything that’s on public land, or is visible from there, is fair game. It’s the publishing that creates the (potential) problem. If you keep your snaps to yourself, you’re in the clear. If people see a street camera and figure they’re in its field of vision, it’s not going to be a big deal, first because there isn’t much they can do about it on the spot, and second because they’ll figure that footage is not about to be published anywhere. However, if people see you taking their picture, first they can hit you right away because you’re there, and second they will assume you take pictures to actually publish them somewhere —and it is that assumption that creates the (potential) problem.</blockquote>
