Perhaps nothing better exemplifies this than a lawsuit against a sheriff's department for livestreaming a traffic stop. And, no, we don\u2019t mean police body cam footage \u2013 we\u2019re talking an actual TikTok live stream. Such is life in the 2020s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FStoppers reports that a man in Texas is suing the sheriff's department in Dallas County after his personal information was broadcast to an audience of about 100 people over a TikTok livestream. The sheriff\u2019s deputy, named in the report as Francisco Castillo, was engaged in a traffic stop on March 2, 2021, with the individual, Torry Osby, who later found out the deputy had livestreamed the event because viewers reached out to Osby after viewing his personal information on his driver\u2019s license.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interestingly, in Texas, you don\u2019t need the consent of both parties to record video but Osby\u2019s lawyers are taking the angle that their client's personal information was exposed during the course of the TikTok live stream. This is pretty hard to dispute since his driver\u2019s license was shown on the stream and was, in fact, the way he learned of the whole thing in the first place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether Osby has a case or not remains to be seen, but it does bring up interesting questions around privacy<\/a> in a society that is so obsessed with social media<\/a> that is particularly focused on video and photography. Of course, for what it\u2019s worth, there\u2019s also the argument that the officer should\u2019ve been more professional, and perhaps refrain from livestreaming on social media while working.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Any thoughts you might have on privacy and livestreaming are more than welcome in the comment section below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
