Discussion keeps the world turning.
This is Roundtable.
You didn't press record, but there you are in someone's live stream or their vlog or their viral clip.
No permission asked, no warning given.
So when does being in public mean giving up your right to your own face?
We're coming to you from our studios in Beijing.
This is Roundtable.
I'm Steve.
And for today's show, I'm with Feifei and Yang Yang.
First up.
In an era where live streams and cameras are everywhere,
you might find yourself appearing in someone else's content without even realizing it.
And it might not be too much of a stretch to say it's already happened.
From everyday streets to coffee shops, gyms and concert venues,
the line between public life and recorded life is becoming increasingly blurred.
A stranger's video can go viral in hours, and your face could be in it without a single word of your consent.
So the question is simple, but it's also urgent.
When your image enters someone else's camera,
where do the boundaries of consent and personal rights actually lie, and who gets to draw that line?
Serious questions, Fei Fei and Yang Yang.
