    When was the last fight you got into? Because I can guarantee you’ve been filmed in public in the last year.

      I’ve never been targeted specifically with discrete recording equipment to exploit me online. That’s quite different from getting recorded in someone’s picture or video not focused on me. One of those is predatory and deserves just retaliation.

      In general, I don’t get into physical altercations because I don’t put myself in positions where it’s necessary. The last time was at a concert some years ago, and a few close encounters diffused since then. Usually it’s not worth it, especially with all guns out there, but there are times when it is.

      Like I prefaced though, there’s pretty much a zero percent chance I ever find myself in this scenario. If I saw someone recording, I’d avoid it. If I discovered someone I’m having a conversation with is recording me for exploitation, all bets are off.
