“Priest might think he’s vaguely familiar, but unless the person is involved in church activities, the priest is unlikely to know his name or details about him”

So then there’s nothing for him to report and the law does nothing. So what’s the big deal? Why complain?

Because if this stands, if priests are deemed to have no right to the confidentiality and sacredness of the Confessional, then it provides a precedent to those who might want to plant recording devices in confessional booths.
