Is it infringement to shoot public figures in public places?

Shooting public figures in public places may or may not constitute infringement. It depends on whether the photographer respects the portrait right and privacy right of the subject.

If the photographer takes photos or videos of public figures in public places without his consent and makes them public or for commercial purposes, it may constitute infringement.

For example, if the photographer discloses other people's photos or videos without the photographer's consent, or the photographer's behavior in the photos or videos violates the photographer's privacy, then such behavior constitutes infringement.

In addition, public places include many places, and some places need to protect privacy and portrait rights. For example, people in dressing rooms, toilets, hospitals, children's playgrounds and other places have higher requirements for their privacy and portrait rights. If you shoot others in these places, or even post them online, it will cause serious harm to the photographer. Therefore, shooting public figures in public places does not constitute infringement, but some basic principles must be followed: respecting the privacy and portrait rights of others, following the law, not doing excessive acts, and avoiding bringing adverse consequences to others.

Finally, it should be emphasized that we should respect the privacy and portrait rights of others at all times and do nothing that infringes on the rights of others. Only in a peaceful, free and harmonious environment can everyone's rights and interests be guaranteed.
