UK govt want to ban public photography
    #6596923 -

:wtf: This is crazy. The UK Govt are about to propose restrictions on photography in public places which could make street photography and documentary photography against the law.

I dont understand. Where the hell does this come from?

Petition here! http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/Photography/

I've been searching and haven't been able to find any specifics on this ban. I'm starting to think it's all people getting worked up over nothing.

I like to think of it as Big Brother/Nannystate tax hell(UK) vs Big Business/police state hell(US).Im sure the powers that be in the US would prefer to be like the UK as well but they have that pesky bill of rights to overcome which they are doing great at right now.

thats the thing. Our verbal constitution is an asshole.

They do like to monitor us alot, but I feel I have more freedom than a lot of places.

I have never been to the US though...
