There was a recent case where a security camera postioned on a private property took pictures of someone who wan't within the area of that property.
If someone is filmed by that camera they have all their rights under the GDPR including making a Subject Access Request. Usually a householder will be a private individual.
However in this instance, both parties will be in a private place that they have been admitted to by the airline under a contract of carriage. Does the passenger have a right to privacy and does the airline have any liability if they have given implied permission by not stopping the passenger filming?
That happens all the time. Just because someone brings a case it doesn’t mean they have a legally enforceable point. The ICO struggle to deal with issues generated by business, so would have no chance dealing with issues created by individuals. It would be completely unmanageable not to mention the likelihood of Joe Bloggs even knowing what a SAR is let alone how to comply with it if he receives one. Lots of private properties have security cameras not to mention ring doorbells nowadays. Of course everyone has a mobile phone as well. I’m sure there will be more cases saying these breach privacy laws but no one could possibly govern their use by individuals.
Eastern could not stop a passenger from filming. They could have them removed if it’s in their T&Cs but not stop it’s use.
