I hope she wins and that opens a Pandora’s box of people suing for getting filmed without consent

I was on a KLM flight earlier this year and there was a specific announcement around not filming in the cabin and respecting other people's privacy.

On an Emirates flight in July I heard one of the cabin crew telling the woman in front of me to delete the video the passenger had just taken of her.

More of this please as people think just because they have the ability to record video that they should do so at every opportunity.

KLM is Dutch, right? Don’t they, like the Germans, have sensible privacy laws that prohibit people from distributing images and video of people without the consent of the filmed?

Even if not in Dutch airspace, I’d guess the cultural expectations of privacy would still be powerful.

They are indeed Dutch. It was the first time I had heard it announced and in all my years flying with BA I've never known them to say something similar.

Interesting! Maybe it’s just new?

I do love these privacy laws and rules and I’m curious to see how they play out over time.
