Hi all,
We'd like to hear peoples thoughts on this we met with a couple and started to getting to know them. The couple are locals and we thought they where exactly what we were looking for until one night. We asked if they were interested in coming over and getting to know us better and maybe anything else that may happen. They replied saying only one of them could come as they had no baby sitter and we replied maybe another time then, but they insisted she would come over so we agreed. Anyway one thing lead to another and before to long we were exploring each other and we,,,my partner and I noticed a funny flash of light. We stopped and both said did you see that? and started asking questions. It turned out that the lady was taking pics on her phone and recording us on voice recorder as well without telling us. She insisted that it was for partner to see what we were up to. We told her we were not comfortable with the taking of pics and recording and she turned off her phone.
We have since been told by them that they don't wish to know us anymore because they are not comfy with us not allowing them to record.
Our question is, were we wrong to stop this, is it acceptable for ppl to record others without them knowing? We think not.

For a start a total breach of trust and respect, not to mention the illegality of recording someone with out their knowledge.
The recording should have been discussed with you first and the reasons why they/she wanted a recording.
I am actually curious know as to why they wanted to have things recorded and are not willing to participate unless recorded.
I hope you managed to get her to delete the photos and recordings.
cheers

You weren't in the wrong at all, what she did was a complete invasion of your personal privacy and downright rude.
Totally wrong on the other people's part .
First off, to record and photograph you without permission is a massive invasion of privacy and trust which under the circumstances of the meet are essential. It also shows that their discretion may be in question as if they are to take pics or recordings what is to say that these will not be made public in some way.
Second, to then decide that they do not wish any further contact based on your responses to being recorded without knowledge and that you did not wish this into the future again for us would bring their discretion into question.
That all said, do these people have in their profile that they will take pictures, movies or audio recordings or did they mention it in discussion?

Oh my goodness you did the right thing by pulling the pin. Did you make sure she deleted everything? As the others have said what an invasion of privacy. If anything she should have asked if you didn't mind. That is so disgusting.
