But they are not just 'anyone' are they? Why would the press want a picture of joe bloggs in his garden :shrug:

If it was Mr Smith down the road flying a drone over a garden to get a picture of a child in the garden...then thats creepy. But this is the press trying to get pictures of English Royalty. They probably were not specifically after pictures of Archie but he was obviously in the garden at the time. Its not creepy its opportunist and an invasion of privicy.

in america, the laws differ state to state but the principle is

Quote:

Photography may be prohibited or restricted by a property owner on their property. However, a property owner generally cannot restrict the photographing of the property by individuals who are not within the bounds of the property.

I mean are we not all open to drones flying over our property taking photos? or is there a law against it?

So taking pictures of someone’s child on private property isn’t creepy, as long as the person is in the public eye? That’s beyond ridiculous, but anything to attack Meghan I suppose

You can hone on on google earth if you had a mind to on peoples property so not sure what the law is :shrug:

Anne, Edward and Andrew (until now) managed to avoid much public scrutiny and have lived their lives pretty peacefully, not quite sure why Harry and Meg’s can’t do the same, .cake and eat it springs to mind with these two

It would be creepy if the person wanted them for themselves yes, but I assume they were taken for money? .so no I don’t find it particularly creepy, just someone seizing an opportunity

According to Californian law:

"This law prohibits entering the airspace of an individual in order to capture an image or recording of that individual engaging in a private, personal or familial activity without permission. This legislation is a response to the use of UAS by the press in covering celebrities and other public figures."

It’s wrong to be photographing children in their own homes but please stop with the creepy line of defence.

The press get paid to get exclusive pictures, the one’s that are worth the most are the ones people don’t want the public to see.

But they could have. taken it for money and their own pleasure... no one actually knows what they are going to do with that picture thats how wrong it is. It’s still creepy regardless

thesheriff443 24-07-2020 11:59 AM

We all had photos taken as kids growing up in our school uniforms and that’s acceptable but someone taking pictures of kids in school uniforms at the park is not.

There is a difference.

Meghan has every right to sue.

Nicky91 24-07-2020 12:03 PM

everyone has rights to their privacy at home, regular people and celebrities

Meghan is in her full right to sue

UserSince2005 24-07-2020 12:15 PM

that drone is so racist

...if it’s illegal to take those photographs, which it is...then it’s surely also illegal to publish them in the media...which leaves open the purpose for why they were taken and where they would appear...

I wouldn't say hanging out in pizza express in woking was particularly secret.
