Redditors really have a weird thing where they take pictures of random people and thinking it's okay. Just glad to see people bringing it up.

Yes, the moment is nice, cannot deny that, and yes, it made me smile.

But you can't just take a photo of random people and post it on the internet, especially of kids, even if you're trying to spread good vibes.

Get your good vibe posts/karma/whatever a different way.

Please don't do this again. It's not right.

Others will probably be mad, call you out, etc, but I won't do that. Hopefully what I wrote makes sense to you.

Yeah it's not just "I don't want my kids on the itnernet" some children may have been taken away from dangerous situation from very dangerous people and their faces on the internet puts them and their caretaker in danger.

That's exactly right. Not only is it weird, but it could even be dangerous.

I sure hope not, but you're absolutely right.

It's not cute to take pics of random people or their kids just minding their own business out in public. I know it's legal in many places but that doesn't mean you HAVE to take their pic and then post it.

Did you ask if you could post a picture of him and his kids on the internet?!

Here’s the thing about posting public pictures of children: if you want to do it in a way that doesn’t expose them to danger you don’t include information about where and when those children could be found. This picture includes the station they presumably regularly travel through, and is obviously afternoon after school. That’s enough information to find these people with a half assed effort and you shouldn’t do this.

I'm 35 and watched the original movie for the first time Friday night. I would have been horrified if I watched it as a kid

I did. I was.

I literally cannot get that scene of the kids turning into rats out of my head. Decades later it’s burned into my brain forever. I’ve never seen the movie twice.

Although I agree that it is a violation of a private moment, it is in a public place. The law allows this and it protects all of us from totalitarianism.

I never said they aren’t, nor did I say that this isn’t a moral grey area. It’s about the journalistic freedoms that are also allowed by the same laws.

What if nobody was allowed to film when Michael Jackson held his baby off a balcony, because it’s a baby?

Don’t see pictures of people in public and post them online. This is the L train in Brooklyn, an area of New York that is lower class and mostly minorities where most people on that train are likely residents, not tourists. They’re just going about their lives and you’re taking pictures of them. If I were on that train and my picture of me and my children (who are minors) appeared on Reddit I would feel a large sense of privacy lost.

Hah, we just finished this book a week ago and even watched the movie.

Nice moment. Well done. People criticise NYC and for good reason but I find that 99.99% just want to get on with their lives. Even the drug addicts across the street never give us trouble.
