Best Answer

In most places it is legal if the person is in a public place. However, you have to be careful about not edging into "Stalking" territory though. If you are making a short video or something that requires filming in a public place and you are worried about it either ask the person for a 'release' or blur their face.

Depends on what you videotaped them doing. If and when they were videotaped, they were in a place that has security cameras and the cameras are announced and or advertised, then no.
