Shooting video for yourself is one thing, sharing it to a third party like Google, MS, or Apple is another. Unfortunately many people have been brainwashed to not consider or even understand the difference.

I'm fine with being recorded as long as you keep it private. Not with that video ending up on your Drive backups or OneDrive etc, let alone YT.

"Sharing with a third party" because you have phone backups enabled is very different from streaming live or uploading to social media, like most are actually discussing here.

> I get it, but the alternative is what? Get model release forms from anyone in a public space every time you turn your video camera on?

The offline alternative exists even if your OS employs dark UX patterns to make that frustrating. GP is the one who is conflating things.
