    I am a privacy advocate but I will have to disagree with you. There is no such thing as privacy on public places , or in the public internet. If you upload a picture to the internet publicly then it is publicly available to everyone.

      We can disagree here. But if I upload a picture with a specific intent (sharing it in my insta feed for example) why do other companies then have the right to wholesale take these images and use them for other purposes? I think they don’t.

      And there is a serious constraint on privacy violations like taking my picture when I’m out and about, since the photographer can only be on one place at a time.

      What we see here is privacy violations by automated systems on a scale never before seen. Just by taking the photos and processing them.
