    Ok so for any of you confused about what would be an expected level of privacy while recording people in public with a cel phone:

    The person working the back office of Walmart crunching numbers where customers aren’t allowed has an expected level of privacy.

    The people using the bathroom in Walmart also have expected level of privacy.

    The people in the changing room has an expected level of privacy.

    If you were caught with a cel phone recording in any of these circumstances you could be persecuted for violating privacy.

    If however you’re walking around on the main floor of Walmart recording a person looking at the price on a can of beans, you’re safe from legal prosecution as far as privacy laws (although that isn’t to say you are safe from being charged as a stalker or harassment in a certain context) .

    And legally you could record what cops are doing out in public.
