I feel anyone against this should push for it to be illegal. You can always put in an inquiry very easily on your Governor's contact page. Just go to contact us fill out a concern or feedback form. It should be "Illegal" in every single U.S. state to record or take pictures of people without their verbal consent if the intent was to mock, insult, basically completely invading someone's privacy and post on their social media for money or views. What if the person they are recording is a DV victim hiding from their abuser. This is a form of harassment and stalking.
By doing that whether in your place of residence or in public is not good. Especially as you stated some very good reasons in your comment. So many lives have been destroyed by allowing others to do so for their own personal gain. Most definitely harassment and stalking has been done to so many others across the US.

Great question! Although I'm not licensed in the UK, I did find this information from The Sun. It looks like it might be legal for personal use, but extremely limited for publication or distribution. (www.the-sun.com/news/1747233/illegal-record-conversation-uk-permission/)
I didn't say anything about public or private recordings. What did you hear? I covered ALL recordings in 1-party consent states and didn't even try to address public/private recordings in 2-party consent states. If you'll open your mind, and not be so quick to use harsh words, you might learn something. 😉
In one-party consent states, you can legally record conversations and interactions YOU are party to, even if your recording device is concealed and others are unconscious to it.
Michigan is actually a very odd duck when it comes to 1-party vs 2-party. It is easier to think of it as a 2-party state, but that's also not exactly correct. It lies somewhere in the middle.

Yes, Unlawful Surveillance is a serious offense. Setting up a cam or recording device whether it's on your mobile phone, buried in a clock or disguised as something else to record women having sex, using the bathroom or changing clothes

@@MatthewHarrisLawPLLC Just curious, do those laws Correspond with the constitution?
@@b.c6015 So far they've been upheld.
@@b.c6015 Posting private photos and videos online without your permission can potentially constitute a violation of your privacy and, in some cases, may be illegal. The specific legal remedies available to you can depend on the laws in your jurisdiction.
@@b.c6015 Yes
I wish you would specify that this is for audio only and for places that are private, not in general like out in public.
Well there are places in public that recording could still be prohibited from recording even in a 1-party state. It depends on the expectation of privacy.
@@MatthewHarrisLawPLLC In your apt/home if you have not been consented or made aware of.

How about these so called 1st amendment videographers that want to cause problems with the cops, but dont have their permission. They video other people too. From public lands. What if they refuse but its posted anyways.
So, my question is, If I record my conversation with someone else,
Let's say with a little recorder. And they don't know, I'm recording.
It's illegal.
I'm in New York.
If New York is a 1-party consent state, then your consent is sufficient to record.
@MatthewHarrisLawPLLC thank you. And yes it is
@@MatthewHarrisLawPLLC 18 U.S.C. § 2510.). This law prohibits the secret recording of an oral, telephonic, or electronic communication that other parties to the communication reasonably expect to be private. However, if at least one party to the conversation consents to the recording, the recording is lawful.

You left out Utah and federal. Record any way most of all heading federal
Illegal recording is a felony that can give rise to civil damages under NC law
you gotta define what recording is illegal though
what about london ?
Great question! Although I'm not licensed in the UK, I did find this information from The Sun. It looks like it might be legal for personal use, but extremely limited for publication or distribution.

@@MatthewHarrisLawPLLC thank you!
It is my pleasure. 😁
BOOM! 😂 ❤
Washington state is an all party consent state, not one party
Yeah i don't think the information here is up to date. Because he listed michigan as a 2 party consent state. And we're not
They ban abortions but recording random people is legal wtf..
Your limited legal brain needs to make the distinction between public and private recording.
Your law degree needs to be revoked for incompetence.
I didn't say anything about public or private recordings. What did you hear?
I covered ALL recordings in 1-party consent states and didn't even try to address public/private recordings in 2-party consent states.
If you'll open your mind, and not be so quick to use harsh words, you might learn something. 😉
In one-party consent states, you can legally record conversations and interactions YOU are party to, even if your recording device is concealed and others are unconscious to it.
Well I heard Michigan, so I guess consent is needed
Michigan is actually a very odd duck when it comes to 1-party vs 2-party. It is easier to think of it as a 2-party state, but that's also not exactly correct. It lies somewhere in the middle.
Here's an article that can explain Michigan's law better than me. 😁

Oh, I whole-heartedly agree. And my Dad-Jokes are the worst! 😆
Appreciated it though! I showed this to my class of video art students to give them the run down on one party consent!
@@bradym That is outstanding! It is an honor and a privilege to educate. 🥰
You know, your class may also find some benefit from our video on recording police in public. th-cam.com/video/n63J4jTTnZc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=2BOOwyRR7rBO1XPL
What if they, not government or police, put cameras in your house and has it live streaming ? What if you were in someone else's house and your going out with the owner and you find out that they have cameras in the bedroom and it live streaming yall having sex ? What if they are selling it ? Wv.
Yes, Unlawful Surveillance is a serious offense. Setting up a cam or recording device whether it's on your mobile phone, buried in a clock or disguised as something else to record women having sex, using the bathroom or changing clothes
Surveillance abuse is the use of surveillance methods or technology to monitor the activity of an individual or group of individuals in a way which violates the social norms or laws of a society.
Oh my dog ... what's the answer ?
? What's the answer to what?
Recording someone ... I get it ... depends on the state 🤓

WIRETAPPING 👇🏼
ALSO NOT IN A PERSONS PLACE OF RESIDENCE WITHOUT CONSENT DOES APPLY IN ONE PARTY STATES.
THAT IS INVADING PRIVACY.
Wait, what? You confused me now dammit
pretty simple
Get us to the point!! Sir?
While it's legal to record in public, you should avoid capturing faces. This is because you need people's permission to post their photos online. The right of publicity is applicable if you use someone's face for commercial purposes. It's illegal to make money from a person's video recording without their consent!

In North Carolina it's a felony to record someone without their consent
record how? video record in public places for example? NC state can go screw themselves because that's covered under the 1A
In California, it depends, what the content of the video.
Doesn't matter in any place of US land. Even if it is a conversation, there is not expectation of privacy in public.
