    U.K. anti-photo campaign

    Interesting editorial from my home town newspaper. Here's the link:

    Dunno if this belongs in the lounge or business or where, but it's nice to see the media starting to pick up on these things.

    I moved this to "On Photography," since most of the similar threads reside in this sub-forum.

    On the subject, I agree that it is good that the media is spending some ink on the topic.

    Thanks for sharing such a timely article. Many hobbyists seem to develop perceived phobias regarding pursecution but it is scary to find that this time that phobia has been decreed by a government!

    This is the campaign that the columnist is reacting to:

    Whatever else can be said about it, it does not target photographers exclusively.
