New Law to Require 'Click' from Camera Phones
This is absurd
There is no justification whatsoever for this idiotic bill. As remarked by another contributor, if cameras don't make a loud click, there's no reason cell phones should have to. And even if cameras DID make that sound, one has the right to demand silent photography. I want to know exactly which imbecile proposed this.
...
aparently some senater or such probably ended up with pics of his wild kids online because of the silent camera phones. and is now pissed about it instead of being pissed that his kids are out of control....just a guess, lol

this is what you get when you vote Obama and that many other liberals into th White House and Congress. Don't let or make people take responsibilty for their own actions. blame the availability of consumer goods that make our lives easier.
don't blame the parents for not controlling their kids.
don't blame the kids for not being in control.
Blame the companies and people that make available the products and services you ask for America.
And when the companies tell the truth and say, "This is exactly what you asked for," cry to the government to fix it.
George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Ben Franklin and the other founding fathers would be crying in their graves if they knew what their descendants are doing.

ROFL... hope you have someone to help you get your foot out of your mouth, because one of the co-sponsors of the bill is a REPUBLICAN.

What is exactly is the big deal about a click? You guys are obviously taking pictures of things that you don't want the subject to know about it. Otherwise it's not a problem. The law mainly is to protect women who are unaware that these photos are being taken of them. Think your mom, your sister, your daughters.
...
Think credit-card sized cameras and video recorders.
The point is that this law is useless and a waste of time/money.

All laws are useless and a waste of money,think speeding signs, think how much money the gov't wastes on those signs, now think how many people actually drive the speed limit. Waste. You guys seem to forget that cell phones are a growing technology, and more and more people are having them. Think of it this way, people who want to do wrong will, but helping people protect themselvesis something you should care about. I'm assuming most people who have responded are single and have no kids right?
...
As has already been pointed out, forcing camera phones to bleep at you when they take a picture isn't going to fix anything. Simply put your thumb over the speaker and the sound will be inaudible beyond a foot or two.
Speed limits, whether you obey them or not, save lives. How many lives is a camera shutter sound on a cell phone camera going to save?
It's a ridiculous waste of taxpayer time and money.

The lives of the women being violated. You think that pics on the net don't ruin someones life? Or how about child porn? Hmmmm, I guess I'm the only one who doesn't find this law ridiculous.
...
You're missing the point.
This law accomplishes nothing. Women's lives are still going to be violated by creeps using credit card sized cameras that are unaffected by this law. Child porn isn't created using camera phones in the first place.
All the hot buttons you're trying to press are irrelevant. It's a pointless waste of taxpayer money.
You want to stop people from violating women's lives by posting pictures on the internet? Fine! Prosecute the people who post the pictures. Making their camera phones bleep when they take the picture SOLVES NOTHING.

I see where you're coming from but, there must've been something that happened to bring this up. I agree that there's much better things they could be talking about and changing laws on.

married w/ 3kids (one daughter) ... for me it's not the law itself, it's that people expect the government to fix their problems WAYYYYYY to often. if it's a problem with a potholed road, traffic issues or public security (police,fire, etc.), fine call the government.
but don't ask the government to raise your kids right for you, even if you screwed up 25,30 40 years ago and your child is a pervert or is in prison for rape, murder, robbery, hate crimes, etc. It's not the government's fault they are there.
You didn't raise your offspring to be strong enough to deal with his or her problems(emotional or psychological problems from birth are excluded).

Part of what makes this stupid is the simple fact that it could never be enforced.
The fact that it *shouldn't* ever be enforced is another issue.
People don't have a right to privacy in a public place.
I am entitled to take as many pictures as I want.
The only restrictions on photography in a public (non secure)area are on later use of those photos.
If you don't like it, stay indoors.
I can't sell pics of your hot wife - but I can peruse them at my leisure, snot running down my nose,greasy fingers smearing shabby clothes.
Don't start away uneasy,you poor old sod, you see, it's only me.

Actually people do have a right to privacy in public places. You can't intrusively take pictures of people. It works like this, you can take a picture of the building as I'm passing by. You can't 'legally' take a close up of my wife's ass, at that point you have invaded her privacy and that you can't do legally. You also can't take upskirt, downshirt etc... legally. This of course doesn't stop you. Secondly, the only reason you can do those things is because you are a pervert. And I'm sure you do exactly that. Third, again most cc sized cameras and videos don't allow you to instantly taken those photos and send them anywhere in the world.
...
Nope.
If you're out in public, I can take a picture of you and anything you choose to leave exposed.
If a reasonable person would consider you the subject of the photo, then I cannot sell that picture without your consent unless you are a public figure, in which case all bets are off. (Think paparazzi.) In your "passing by a building" example, I'd be free to use the picture because the building is the subject, not you.
However, I can take a picture of you for my own personal use and the only way you can legally prevent me from doing so is to stay in a private location at all times.

I will agree with you on every point in that post.
but there is a satellite up there that can take a picture of my car when I leave here at 930 tonight and tell where I got my drink from before I left the mall as I'm driving 70 mph (the legal speed limit on the highway here) on a winter's night.
scary, huh?

Yeah - I'd blast back at Big, but this really isn't a party line issue anyway.
It's just a moron proposing a slew of bills that don't go anywhere.
It could just as easily have been a Democrat.
The fact that it was proposed by a Republican, during a Republican presidency, is entirely coincidental.

Ya, cuz Democrats also proposed torture, a war to get "Weapons of Mass Destruction", and wire taps without warrants. Oh wait, that was Bush's agenda sorry.

Oh but the democrats just approved to fund abortion education in OTHER contries. Because it's sooooo important.

It is very important to undo all the damage Republicans did the last 8 years but what does that have to do with the this subject.

HOW DUMB DO U SOUND?????????????
First of all peter king IS A REPUBLICIAN WHO INTRODUCED THIS BILL .YOU REALLY NEED TO RESEARCH BEFORE YOU SPEAK.
"the prospects for King's stateside bill doesn't look entirely rosy. He has no co-sponsor for the action and, a smattering of press reports aside, there hasn't been much interest in the legislation at all."

just because there is an "(R)" next to his name, doesn't make him a conservative or traditional republican. Joe Lieberman's (D) status is only his party affiliation. but if you look at what his voting and especially his support record has been lately, he is definitely more conservative than most, if not all, democrats and several republicans.
...
This is absolutely absurd. It is the principle of the thing! It begins with camera clicks and ends with complete control. Government has become way too intrusive and is getting worse! Liberals want to control thinking, acting, what you can or can not do, tell you what is good for you, what isn't, what kind of car you can drive, what radio shows you can listen too and so it goes. The new administration wants control over the "ignorant" masses. They want to be sure you think the "correct" things. Liberalism is in fact a form of Fascism. Here is the definition: "Fascism is an authoritarian nationalist ideology focused on solving economic, political, and social problems that its supporters see as causing national decline or decadence.
