Wrong.
People going out in public trying to cover their identity are doing the exact opposite of common decency.
It defies the social order of Western culture and it is highly ignorant. You can't board a plane or enter a bank with your face covered. There is a reason for this.
When you go out in public. You are in public. Period. And you actually can take pictures of people on the beach. I don't know what the fuck you are talking about. Have you ever even been to a beach or been in public?
If you go out into the big scary world...people will take your picture. It is within their legal rights. Sorry I don't make the rules. It is proof of work pal.
