I just realized that it forgets about deaf and mute people. Why do we have surveillance cameras and are fine with it because they at least don’t listen in on our conversations but draw the line on audio recording, when all this time video surveillance was already intruding on the privacy of the conversations of deaf and mute people who have to rely on sign languages to communicate?
(note this isn’t me defending audio or video recording, fuck that. this is just me realizing how that specific law doesn’t account for disabilities)
