I see your point, but if your bedroom is portable and you put it where there are a thousand cameras are known to be going past it (phones and dashcams), I don't think you could reasonably assume any level of privacy.
On the other hand, if your intent is to raise awareness of the plight of people, putting your portable right in people's faces is a great plan. I wonder how a tent embassy on the steps of Parliament would go?
What? It was a joke, like, I was joking because yeah it's in public.

Omg. I just basically said the same thing without reading this first. Lol
The thing about camping there is that there IS a lot of camera coverage. Reduces bullying and theft and personal assault of the homeless. The bloke who sleeps outside the 7-11 by the Collins St/Spring St tramstop goes there for that very reason. He reckons if you're out of sight, then there's no protection from random bastards of the general public. He has a point I think.
