The woman in question is a private individual, and thus is entitled to privacy that celebrities and public figures do not enjoy.
The GGW film crew is in the wrong. She said no and didn't give consent to the film crew - just because she was there is no excuse. In my opinion, this is victim blaming in the works. Reminds me of a recent case reported in the NY Times where a woman wearing a skirt was riding an escalator and a man behind her took the opportunity to take a cell phone shot of up her skirt. He was arrested and convicted, but I was troubled by reading the comments section - many anonymous posters decried the sentencing and stated she (the victim) was at fault.
I understand in life there are certain common sense things, but this is not one of them. If anything, a woman has the right to be in public with the same expectation of privacy as a man, just like a man has the right to step outside and not be beaten to shit opportunistically and then blamed for it.
And yes, you have the right to not be filmed, photographed or recorded.
Padriac, you are dead wrong on this area.
Might I note that it took a mere 90 minutes for a jury to make a decision? Verily, a trial of my peers is a terrifying prospect, considering my "peers", by consideration of the county, not me, will most likely be bested by a parsnip in an IQ test.
