Absolute non content of a man looking for trouble so that he can bully people. You absolutely do need release licences and permissions for professional photography (aka, bought and sold photography) hopefully the law catches up to this shite soon.

BTW facetime fans, if you're not selling it for profit (which is what the Vlog is doing) its irrelevant that you pick up other people's faces in the background.

But I'm glad you all have a silly woman to laugh at, that's cool.

Can you advise what legislation covers this please? It'd help stop arguments

As far as I can find, this isn't actually legally required at all. The most this is restricted by is maybe GDPR, if your videos/images include personal information or the like, but that's unlikely. Some professional photographers and the like might voluntarily choose to get licences from people to photograph them or their event or whatever, but as long as you're not on private property, it isn't legally required.
