      In the case of France there’s two possible broken laws (not a lawyer btw):

      • If the glasses wearer upload the video/photo online, you are one of the primary subject of the frame (aka not just in he background), and didn’t consent to being on the internet, you can sue.

      • Companies must legally ask you for your concent to collect personal and identifying information. If the video/photo is sent to meta for big data/ai training, they must ask for consent

      Edit: “primary subject” is kinda vague and may change depending on the context. If you do a VLOG and someone does something funny in the background, not aware of the camera, and the video is re-uploaded to only feature the guy, then it becomes the primary subject, and must be asked for concent

      Just break the law and hope the other side is too poor to sue. Basically like everywhere else on the planet.

        In data privacy cases there are ALWAYS people that will sue - there are collectives with money and lawyers.

          In general yes, but if you claim a glasshole recorded you without consent and want to sue them, it’s on you to fund that legal battle. I doubt collectives are interested in individual cases.
