The user you're replying to said "other camera app". They meant apps, not a full sized camera.

So, they're complaining that creeps can use apps to take pictures but regular people can't?

Their whole argument boils down to regular users not being able to download an app from the app store?

Wow. You're right, I assumed their argument was a lot better than that. Oof.

The argument is that the shutter sound inconveniences regular users while doing nothing to prevent the misuse it claims to prevent. Which part did you miss?

I missed the part where every creeper alive circumvents the policy without inconvenience but every other user alive can't.

I require consistency, so either EVERYONE is inconvenienced, or EVERYONE can circumvent it without issue.

The part I missed is the justification for inconsistent and illogical arguments where magically your ability to be inconvenienced is based only on your desire to be a creep.

> where magically your ability to be inconvenienced is based only on your desire to be a creep

Where the hell did this come from?
