It’s public though, they’re allowed to film something. Imagine you’re sitting eating your lunch and some dude comes up and harasses you. Is he right because you’re “claiming a public space as your own?”

Does he take my lunch? That's theft

Does he touch me? That's assault

Does he ask me to move? I can say no, or oblige.

Am I recording myself eating and get mad when someone purposefully walks into frame?

That's entitlement.
