There’s a disturbing number of creeps ITT arguing that they should be allowed to film people without their knowledge on the subway

That transit system must also be a "creep" because they're recording you constantly while you're there.

Oh that was your argument? No, that’s wrong. Do you really not understand the difference between a surveillance camera and an individual person’s camera?

No, I don't. The subway company are a bunch of strangers and they didn't ask if they could film me. They might as well be the individual person for all the difference it makes. Are you ok with breaking their cameras?

Do you seriously need someone to explain the difference, or are you just being contrary for its own sake?
