Cracking glowsticks at a party attracts cameras like flies to a light. What happens if you don't want your face scattered across the Internet?

As the person being filmed, you have every right to ask someone not to post footage that you're in. If they've already posted it without clear permission, you can also ask them to take it down.

  • If you're being recorded, ask the cameraperson to contact you if they want to use or publish the footage. You can choose whether or not to give permission.
  • If you're denying permission, make it clear.
Online (if already posted):
  • Always contact the person who posted the video, first.

  • If you don't mind being up, you can ask to be credited. If you do, ask them to take the video or pictures down, or remove where you appear.

On YouTube, you can send users messages through their Channel page, or directly through Personal Messages under My Account.
