I've solved the problem a different way - a year or so ago I publicly declared my life "performance art" - New Zealand law protects artistic performances and prohibits recording of them without first obtaining a license

Theoretically security cameras must shut off before I pass by in the street

Not in NZ, but how did you go about publicly declaring your lives as "performance art"?

Oh I simply tweeted it ... at the moment it's a rather tongue-in-cheek position, but traditionally here one would place an ad in the "Public Notices" section of the local newspaper.

I've considered doping that just to publicly raise the issue - really we should all having public discussions about these issues before they are deployed, not after

I yawned.

The title of the article was pretty mangled by hacker news. Anybody know why that might be?

The "How" is missing, might be a title length restriction? You could always email hn@ycombinator.com to ask the mods...

HN has some filters to 'de clickbait' headlines, I suspect that removing a leading 'How' is one of those.
