 So how come there have been laws observant we cannot jot down someone, either it’s with audio apparatus or video equipment? What if we have a webcam monitoring your property? is it legal? What if we have a digital camera, as well as have been on foot around town, receiving videos as well as pictures? is it legal? What if we video record, whilst on foot in a rather bad area during night, to strengthen yourself? What if we take it to work, to locate someone we do something bad to you, or to a company? |

in Australia its illegal, you must get someones permission to do so, if you are taking a picture or someone or something and their are others in the background then that is fine if it is for personal uses only. other than that then you must get their con cent. in some cases you may need a signature by the person saying that they are allowing you to do so. if taking it to work to catch someone or something, is still illegal, the evidence will not be able to stand up in a court as you have taken it illegally…hope i helped.
The laws vary by state, and also distinguish between recording audio, video or both and by the type of recording and the place in which it is made.
So, when you ask “what is the law” – the first question that must be decided is where.
in the US, it’s legal as long as you are not on someone elses property!
