There's laws for a reason. Black and white. "Creepy" is a vague term that could be applied to anything. A guy sitting there waiting for a bus, creepy. A woman in goth clothing sitting in the middle of a cemetery, creepy. A kid staring at you like they're about to eat your soul, creepy. None of that is illegal. I'm not defending video recording people in public places, but not illegal. This is only part of the story. Was he trying to make cringe TikTok content? Maybe. Is a serial murderer looking for his next skin suit? Maybe. Villafying people just because you don't know what's going on is the norm right now.
