Now, There's 'Awkward' And There's 'Awkward'
There was I thinking that I could be an 'right awkward B*****d' and Captain Ranty goes and spoils my illusion!
Now, I don't know the 'legalalities', yet, of what the good Captain has done - but it is bloody hilarious to say the least!
Thanks WfW.
ReplyDelete"Legalities" dont come into it.
My actions are lawful, and there is a world of difference.
Rule of thumb:
If it's "Legal" it applies to corporations and "persons". (In legalese, a person is defined as a corporation and vice versa).
If it's "Lawful" it applies to human beings.
When I get to 'Awkward 4th Dan' I will be copyrighting my face. I will publish my copyright in the Edinburgh or London Gazette and I will inform any and all that any unauthorised "capturing" of my face will cost infringers £3M a pop.
Then I am going for a stroll around Manchester. I hear that a four hour shopping trip will see you being filmed over 200 times.
I will then pop round all the shops, the council offices etc and lawfully demand £3M for each breach of my copyright.
Should be fun.
After visiting a few towns I reckon I could be responsible for the end of ALL CCTV in the UK.
Wouldn't that be a blast?
