  Now if they can just notify you that some asshole is recording you on their cell phone instead of reading reddit.

  If you’re out in public, always assume you’re on someone’s camera. That isn’t really new either.

    I’ve never seen an online discussion about privacy without some version of this comment. Never gets old. Is there an Android keyboard with an apathy button that I’m unaware of?

      Apathy? Not at all. Its simply a matter of established law, in the USA anyway. I can’t speak to the legal systems of the other 140+ countries on planet Earth.

        I’m not the other commenter, and it’s not all encompassing, but I’ll link this one here for DE de.wikipedia.org/…/Recht_am_eigenen_Bild_(Deutsch…

  Hmm… I wonder if there’s any solid way to detect a camera lens being in active focus or use. This app works by parsing Bluetooth traffic, but a person locally recording on their phone wouldn’t have such a trail. Is there any reliable way to detect a camera lens reading exposed light?

    Presumably the sensor’s data lines would be detectable, but probably more like laboratory conditions.

    Perhaps a physical shutter would be a good happy medium. Put 'em on the damn cell phones, too.

      Shoot, I should 3d print one for mine. I don’t use my camera for much anyway, and better protection from impacts would be nice.

    Yeah: they’d be pointing the phone at you.

      Yeah, but the issue is intent and actual usage. I don’t want to fuck up my neck by always looking down at a 30deg angle, so I do try to view things on my phone more level with my face. I avoid pointing it directly at people, but I can’t change how others would interpet that.
