You have no assumed privacy in a public space. How long is it going to take people to learn this.

Depends where you are.

Germany, for example, has laws that make it illegal to record people in public doing things that could embarrass or demean them.

Japan made google throw out their original streetview data and do it again with a shorter pole so that it didn't look over people's fences.

Different countries have different laws.
