In Australia authorities impose restraint on photo and video shooting by mobile phones

15 June 2007

The wide-spread practice to use cellular telephones for non-authorized photo and video shootings has forced the Australian authorities to undertake thoroughgoing measures. The new law will essentially limit an opportunity to use mobile phones with the built - in cameras.
As noted one of the document’s authors, the senator from Victoria State Robert Huls, “the passion to the covert shooting using mobile phones has got a character of national epidemic in Australia”.
“Nobody speaks about limitations to take photos, for example, on a beach; the law is applicable only to those persons who is engaged in illegal activity, - emphasized the senator. - Anyhow, this is that very document which meets requirements of all normal people who wish that others keep their right for a private life”.
The punishment for an illegal shooting will be either 10 thousand Australian dollars fine or 6 months imprisonment.
