You're no worse than say, Gore, when it comes to flip-flopping... ;-)
To be consistent, though, you'd have to agree that private property
rights should restrict any recordings from public property onto private
property.
The problem I find with this public transparency for everyone is that it
will lead to a more puritanical society, or at least if it leads to a
more tolerant society, it will be over the bodies and reputations of
thousands, if not millions of people before standards change.
