Look, you can complain about this all you want. If you do not like it, you have the opportunity to take it up with your representatives ( hopefully ) and see if laws can be changed, but in the US, this is the reality. Anyone can film you in public. It's protected under the constitution while you are in public. If you break a law on camera then you can be punished for it. If you don't want that to happen, take steps to ensure you're not falsy accused. It's simple logic.
None of what I said has any opinion in it. It's the reality of the modern world. I don't like or dislike it. It's just how it's going to be unless we alter the First Amendment of the US constitution and that's highly unlikely in the US.
