So we are agreed that there IS some expectancy of private space in public then... It is just a case of determining where the line is drawn.

If some "YouTuber" walks up to someone when they're on the beach or any other public place and sticks a camera in their face and tells them they are being livestreamed to all their "followers" they better hope the camera is insured. Why don't you try it? Walk up to a group of Thai males and start filming them and tell them it's being livestreamed to thousands and that it's perfectly legal. Be sure to report back what happened ????. The Korean got what he deserved. Possibly less. People with your attitude of disrespecting people's private space deserve what is coming to them. Seems to me that you are at the very least condoning violence for a person's actions (livestreaming on a public beach), that are despised by some but nevertheless declared completely legal by Pattaya Police. Typical Caveman mentality - I don't care (about legality) - I don't like, I like to stop this (alphamale chest beating). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerboa1 Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 Just shows you the problem with inflation, not long ago a Thai man could punch a foreigner in the face, pay a 500 baht fine and still have change for a couple of Leo’s and some som tam. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typical Caveman mentality - I don't care (about legality) - I don't like, I like to stop this (alphamale chest beating). We are living in the real world here. Like I said, it's not illegal for someone to sit 1 metre away from your wife/daughter sunbathing in her bikini on the beach and stare at her, maybe take a few pictures of her with his iPhone, maybe start a livestream for thousands of his YouTube followers to look at her body and comment on her. But don't expect most people to just sit there and take that because it's technically not illegal. Most people with a modicum of social skills and decorum realize that while some things may not be technically illegal, they are socially unacceptable and may lead to a verbal or physical altercation. Some people like the Korean think they can do what they want, and they learn the hard way how the world really works. As for abiding by the law 100%, in many countries (including Thailand until recently) it is not illegal to rape your wife. Does that mean you think it's OK that some men do it in those countries? I would assume not. So as you can see, sometimes we have to place our own understanding of what is acceptable above what is considered legal.

jvs Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 You guys are mixing things up. "There is no expectancy of privacy in public" This means basically that you can be recorded by anyone while you are out and about. That is one thing. The other one is about "private space" Private space is all about keeping enough social distance between you and whom ever you are dealing with. If some one is sticking a camera in you face it could be considered harassment. If someone is live streaming and you happen to be in the line of the shot the best way to deal with it is just to ignore it and not look into the camera. The worst and stupidest thing you can do is walk up to the camera and draw attention to yourself.Make sense? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can film anyone in any public place but then showing that footage on social media without consent is now illegal, believe it was announced on a thread on here during the last year. But prostitution is illegal in Thailand so guess the thousands of vloggers are not too worried. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much more likely to be considered to be common assault or battery. Now would that be a 12 volt or 6 volt ? A punch to the face would typically be charge as single-blow GBH.

Filming people and trying to catch compromisng situations for social media clout is totally obnoxious behaviour and hopefully these type of incidents deter the 'vloggers' (w***ers) from doing it. Walking around filming sex workers (essentially degrading them) for a few dollars, or secretly recording people in bars from a camera hidden in the overcoat, real low life Peeping Tom stuff. 1 hour ago, jacko45k said: I am beginning to have some sympathy for Prince Harry and his bossy wife....
