#3Weird piece.
It says things like "[punishment] would send a confusing message to Youtube uploaders everywhere, so it will be interesting to see how the German courts approach this matter." In Germany there is the so called "Recht am eigenen Bild" which means you cannot just film random people and share the images or even exploit them for money. This is a law specific to Germany. Its application does not mean much for "Youtubers everywhere".
I strongly support this as a matter of privacy. Gawking is creepy.
And before someone says some "but he was in a public space, he was at a public event" yadda yadda: See KunstUrhG §23 (2) "Die Befugnis erstreckt sich jedoch nicht auf eine Verbreitung und Schaustellung, durch die ein berechtigtes Interesse des Abgebildeten (...) verletzt wird."

#5He should challenge the uploader to a dance-off instead.
Nobody survives being over-danced by Techno Viking.

And thus we are afraid of being filmed and put in public for everyone to see.
And god forbids, someone will profit for it.
World will end.
Need to make more laws, more punishment, need to make everything more "serious".

I don't think that law is unusual, in Argentina we have it too, and sounds like something very basic anyone would want (though creeps don't seem to understand it, and act surprised when they realize such law exist, and start complaining on their lack of freedom and whatnot, lol). I thought it kind of came packaged with the IP laws that the US pushed everywhere.

#9Techno Viking on HN... It made my day. His guy is a legend.
They say he's "The only man who could kill Chuck Norris", to me that is an understatement. I'd say "The reason Chuck Norris does not dare to visit Berlin" is more accurate.

The same law exists in France, it's called "Droit à l'image", which is the exact same meaning than "Recht am eigenen Bild".
