Apathy? Not at all. Its simply a matter of established law, in the USA anyway. I can't speak to the legal systems of the other 140+ countries on planet Earth.

Can you cite a law in the USA or in your own country where you have a right to privacy making photographing you simply standing in a public park an illegal act perpetrated by another person or government entity?
