I know this is something that no longer resonates - and I know that in a public place, your image may be legally captured and displayed in an article such as this; but I still don't like seeing random people having their photo taken and posted in someone's blog article. How far off base am I in this?
AFAIK, Chris Arnade always asks people for permission to take their pic.
I share your feeling completely, by the way. It absolutely shouldn't be considered OK to take a photo of a stranger in public and post it online.
