Can people not expect a little privacy even if they don't do anything illegal? Or especially if they don't do anything illegal? If youtubers want to expose criminals then please go ahead, do that. Let's see how brave they are. If you want privacy, you can find it at home. If you're doing nothing wrong, you have nothing to hide. If I see a person with a camera I either hide my face until they have passed or act like a total retard and ruin their clips. People who want a good view and privacy can't be choosy. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boomer6969 Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 (edited) IMHO there should be something about Vlogging under the computer crimes act. It is an obvious invasion of privacy. I can understand the bar owner, drunk or not. And in this case the entitled appendage is the chap who thinks he has the right to make money by exposing the private lives of other people.

Customers not wanting to go into bars where vloggers film and also girls not wanting to work there for the same reason . The Canadian Vlogger who went to the bars in CM and stuck his camera into peoples faces and said to the girls "I make video" , "You be on youtube" , was really awkward with the girls asking him in for a drink thinking he was a customer and he films them for a few minutes and walks away to the next bar and also tells the girls that hes married . Just seemed all rather unpleasant 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be an ozzie A nanny state is a Country where the Government interferes with peoples personal choice . Surely it should also be someone's personal choice as to whether someone else films them and puts the video footage on public display for the world to see ? People should be allowed to photo and film what they want , but also people should have the choice whether they want to be photographed and filmed or not 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangkokReady Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 2 hours ago, OneMoreFarang said: NO And if any such youtuber gets beaten up because he does exactly that then he shouldn't hope for mercy. Yeah, you cannot film private property without permission, even if you are standing on public property. Also, it's kind of rude to film people anyway. I always find it annoying when I see someone with a mike and a smartphone. I know we don't have a right to really have an expectation of privacy when we are out in public, but I don't really want to end up in the background of a YouTube video. It gets to the point where, if someone is making money from filming members of the public, where is the cut for the community they are using?

You lose your right to privacy if you're doing something immoral? Or the fact that you don't want to be filmed should make you question the morality of your actions?

Kenny202 Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 Cringeworthy footage. On both sides. The vlogger bloke absolute tosser, how anyone could subscribe to his videos. Both blokes a total embarrassment and everything I hate about Pattaya. Wouldn't be the first time I seen some wheezing diabetic loud mouthed brit lying on the street in a puddle of his own p$$ who got his ambitions mixed up with his abilities. Saw a bloke come out of a cubicle in the toilets Central Pattaya one day...pants around his ankles....mid cr@p I assume abusing the poor little cleaning woman because he didnt know you had to get tissue before you went in. I only hoped she didn't understand the fowl names he called her and that she had some cousins on the way with steel pipes. Scum of the earth. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regyai Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 These vloggers may or may not be legal in Thailand using this tired old YouTube formula of raising a reaction from people (done to death in USA and subsequently in the UK baiting police and security staff) from the legal sanctity of a public street. The obnoxious ones in Thailand seem to be those pandering to the 'Beavis n Butthead' mentalities out there by sneaking video snoopings on carousers purportedly being caught in some form of supposed flagrante delicto. These are a breed apart from the benign (& done to death) 'inside track Pattaya experts' pounding the sois spouting their invaluable tips, info and barstool clichés - usually whilst trying to make their knowledge filled minds up how to pronounce Pattaya. That said the obvious solution in the UK/USA always was for the police to basically ignore them - this has largely been rolled out and now getting hardly any triggered responses they get no footage of note - no views - no reward. If these errant vloggers are causing angst as in the case in point of this thread - then half assed responses like that outlined only fuel the fire by giving them yet more clickbait footage. Far more definitive if they upset customers &/or hurt business would be a communal stipend to the nearest motocy rank to impart judicious ICU stays to these lens wielding parasites as required. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerno Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 4 hours ago, 2long said: Grey area in my opinion. If the attention-seeking idiot with the camera wants to video in public, that's his right. If people want some privacy in public, then they also have rights (this month's new law for example). But in summary, everyone's wrong but it's great entertainment. A middle aged Englishman giving it the 'look at these sad fools' in Pattaya. Several middle-aged Brits getting upset about being filmed sitting next to hookers. Everyone needs to grow up! - If you're in a bar and not crazy drunk, pay attention to who's walking around out front doing what.. that includes YouTubers, police, jealous husbands, wives etc. - If you're a YouTuber tying to get attention and views by filming these guys... expect what you get. In "public" is not inside a private business, bar or or otherwise, even with their doors wide open facing the street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unecessery comment just to provoke. When sitting in any bar I expect being respected to not be taken video or photo of. Even on beaches if people sit close, or by any chance is in frame close up, I ask if it's okay I take pictures. Latest on the pig beach on Koh Phangan, and still I would not post them anywhere even I got their permission. It takes just a little bit Common sense, but still so hard for a few to understand. Not hard to make innocent situations look bad even it is just a beer or two in a beer bar in Thailand. I don't expect you to understand but maybe somebody is willing to! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCOTT FITZGERSLD Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 the question is weather it is allowed and legal to advertise on youtube the faces of people without their written and signed consent. in most countries it is illegal. i guess the people who are filmed and apear on youtube films without their knowledge are not aware to the laws, and are not suing the youtubers. in many countries such law suit will result in handsome compensation.

Point a camera at the entrance of a sex shop or a bar, etc. . I am sure someone will explain to them the errors in their judgement. In Amsterdam you end up in one of the canals. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
