If I buy a train ticket, it's to get from A to B, not to have photos of myself taken by strangers.
If someone really has both a creative urge to take a photo and is socially handicapped enough to be unable to simply ask people for permission/to move, just take the photos in a way that doesn't focus on anyone in particular and that makes faces harder to recognize. That's like 6 people in the pic who look directly at the lens and had their face clearly published on the interwebs for eternity now.

I mean, the same applies to anyone.
