To Bitcoiners responding to my opsec post with "If you're in public you must accept that someone will post pictures of you online without your consent".

No I don't have to accept that. Nobody has to. You don't have to either. If you post pictures of people without their consent, it doesn't matter if it's a public or a private event, or if it's legal in your jurisdiction or not. It all doesn't matter.

If you don't care about it, it simply means that you don't care about the privacy of others. It means you don't care about the other's right to decide whether Apple, Google, Meta, or X should be fed with their faces. It means that you're feeding surveillance systems with locations, biometric data, and the identities of Bitcoiners around you.

Nobody cares about what's legal. This is a moral question. A question of your own principles in a world of all-encompassing digital surveillance.

Reject surveillance, respect privacy, remember your cypherpunk manners.

You DO have to accept it otherwise you're just going to keep complaining. If you don't want the average person, who doesn't think about these things, to not take a picture of you or anyone else and post them for all to see, then YOU need to be proactive about your anonymity. You have no right to tell others what to do, so quit crying about it.
