Hey guys, read this. It's about a bill passed so that candid photography will be illegal.

It may not be in your country, but what if something like this happens in your town? The proposed bill even includes parameters for people in the background of your selfies. What are your thoughts?

Hi, I can't see that law standing up in any real court of law if the subjects were blurred out beyond recognition.
I'm all for privacy and try to ask any persons if it's OK to shoot, but IMO, that is going too far.Cool
