Nah bro just a bit of fun

According to a letter from the Privacy Commissioner a few years ago, if you're a party to the conversation, record away. You don't even have to tell the other party. Nordieboy.

So, how does Joe Sleazeball get on when he's outside the local Girls high school filming away

I thought you had to ask permission to film someone in public. ( if so, would that include a police officer doing his job? TV news crews do it all the time)

I know if I caught Joe Sleaze videoing my 14yr old daughter, I just might get a bit pissed off.

Also another interesting question I would be curious to know the answer to. Is there not a defence in NZ about the right to not incriminate yourself and refuse the officer the "evidence". I certainly wouldnt be handing over the sole original copy.

No. This isn't the US. You have no rights.

I caught a piece on FOX last night, between other programmes, and they were discussing this very thing. A lot of cops in the US have objected to being filmed and have reacted badly. They have no legal right to do so, and with one exception no disciplinary action was taken against them as far as is known.

One cop bowled a guy of his push bike, in something approximating a rugby tackle, then charged the cyclist with assault. Unfortunately for the cop somebody else recorded the whole thing on a phone. That cop got the big A IIRC.

And yet, curiously, I'd still rather be here.

Here is my contribution. Nice to hear from KB experts that no law was broken.

You also have the right to have a copy so you wouldn't have to hand over the sole copy just a copy (tho they probably take the original)

Please don't tell me you think Americans do.
