It sounds like your solution is to /own/ the private airsoft field, not just use it.

That's the solution. You don't want to be recorded? Attend "no-recording" event. If there are no such events, tough luck. Market is not obligated to serve your particular needs. If you thing enough people care, organize it yourself.

This comment doesn't engage with the topic at all - you've just used "the free market" as a pass to avoid any meaningful discussion of privacy, consent, and social contracts in the digital age. If your "solution" is literally "tough luck" (we both know "no-recording" airsoft events are extremely unlikely to exist) - what has this added to the conversation?

> we both know "no-recording" airsoft events are extremely unlikely to exist

Let's assume it's true. What does it mean? That pretending to ruthlessly murder people while not being recorded is a niche kink and society doesn't owe this guy any special accomodations.

Thanks to the internet, which publishing prowess he abhors, I'm sure, this guy will still be able to find group of fellow degenerates so he can have fun with his exact perversion down to a T.

Or he can relax his requirements and perhaps attend swingers club instead of airsoft, because they don't usually record their hobby. Or keep doing pretend murders but relax his stance about recording it towards more mainstream sensibilities.

Is this sufficient engagement with the topic for you?

Or do I have to spell out that privacy is not special. You aren't organically owed anything when you are with other people, except for what current societal sensibilities dictate.

This is so fucking weird and needlessly hostile to the guy.

I pride myself with generating unorthodox takes. The stuff you can't just get from everybody.

One more thing. You don't affect current social sensibilities with a blog post. Society is a function of technology. Want privacy? Nothing short of inventing some privacy tech will get you that.

I think for airsoft a facemask and pseudonym will do so you don't even need to invent anything, just apply it.

> You don't affect current social sensibilities with a blog post

Do you think they hoped their blog post would have the force of law? I think the many conversations started on the front page of HN were probably more than sufficient impact. You _really_ don't need to be so defensive of the status quo.

Fair enough.

Your comment doesn't engage with the topic at all either bro
