> it is often company policy

I search AMC's website for policies related to carrying a camera. There wasn't any. Considering that the Glass wearer had been there at least 2 times earlier that week without issue, your argument is invalid.

"This guy got away with it previously and I didn't see anything about shoulder mounted cameras on AMC's web site so your argument is invalid."

OK buddy, you got me. Go wear cameras into prohibited areas on private property, specially those where federal law comes into play.

I do things like this all the time and never have an issue. Granted, I've never done this with Google Glass as I haven't gotten one. But your scenario is carried out every day across the country without issue.

Oh, and please, share the federal law that prohibits carrying a camera into a theater? Oh wait, we covered that already. It doesn't exist. And, unlike some dystopian future you might imagine we live in, being able to commit a crime doesn't mean we've actually committed one.

I did not say that it was, just that the property owner has much incentive to be proactive about not having cameras facing the projector screen. Why? There are federal laws against the act of filming copyrighted media in such a manner.

Get it? When federal laws come into play, on private property?

> I did not say...

Never said you did. So... what's your point?

As for the property owners incentive: we've already established that they allow people to point cameras at the screen, and that it's not a policy of the company.

So... it's not a federal law, and not a policy of the company.

So, again, what point are you trying to make?
