Good points regarding improper use of a cellphone in the locker room and behind the wheel (the driving being the far worse of the two). However, proponents of this awful bill should note that photography of this sort potentially violates a number of existing laws. Let's concentrate on enforcement and proper interpretation of existing privacy laws.

As the father of two beautiful teenage girls, I expect them to dress and carry themselves appropriately; thus avoiding such possibilities. Honestly, the shoe phone guys don't disgust me nearly as much as the authors of this bill.

"You do NOT have a right to my likeness or my image. You have no right to my person or my body under any circumstance unless I give it to you first."
If you are in a public area, we do. Even if you are in your backyard & it is open to view from a public sidewalk, we do. You could argue about it if you were in your living room, but stand there with a big picture window where anyone walking by can look in and you will get an argument.
If we can see it, we can photograph it.
