Hmm. Interesting. So I can photograph you in public, sell your photo to anyone I want to advertise anything they want--slap it up on billboards across the country selling Obamacare, say--and I don't have to have your permission or pay you anything.
It might surprise you that the law takes a somewhat different view.
Photography isn’t a crime, and a public place is a public place.
Privately commissioned photos are something else entirely. . .
