The step at the Munich festival comes after thousands of voyeuristic videos emerged on social media.

    I would be more concerned with the onlookers at first. Someone filming seems like an uncomfortable afterthought. Let’s be honest though: this thing is build to enable this and does advertise this lewdness. Bavarians are weird.

      There is a difference to consenting to the ride and consenting to be recorded and those videos being sold. Like a huge difference.

          That is literally what the article is about and is not a secondary concern. The people on the ride consented to that. They may not even have thought videos of them doing it would end up on the internet.

            I feel like they try to frame this ride offering pants to protect from onlookers somewhat unrelated to up skirting. I guess both are enabled by ubiquity of smart phones, but one angle is expected and one isn’t.
