People post videos of others in public all the time, do you think they ask every single person on YouTube to sign a consent waiver to be filmed? There's no "gotcha" as you're implying, those are all things people do already without creepiness.

Voyeurism is an actual crime compared to what restaurants in this thread are doing. Don't create a false equivalence where there is none.

What if the restaurant followed you with a drone and took pictures of everything you ate in public for a month?

Is that not also voyeurism? There is a difference between the real world and online, to most normal people, hence my initial comment saying generally only HNers seem to equate the two.
