Will the installation of surveillance in the audience of the cinema infringe on privacy?

Lawyer Chen believes that the cinema screening hall belongs to entertainment places, and it is also a place where the public widely participates in film and television cultural leisure activities, so it belongs to public space in both narrow and broad sense. Generally speaking, in public space, the right to expect privacy does not exist, so the installation and monitoring of cinemas will not constitute an infringement of public privacy. The original intention of cinema installation monitoring is to create a safe viewing environment for the public, respond to sudden public safety incidents in time, and fulfill the cinema's security obligations as a public event organizer.

The reporter has also been to the screening room many times, and you can see it clearly from the screening entrance without monitoring.

During the field interview, the reporter found that most of the audience did not know that the cinema was monitored. When reporters asked them related questions, some of them said they didn't care, some looked surprised, and others ran into the cinema and said they would go to watch the surveillance. ...

There are also dead ends in the surveillance here. Generally, the positions on both sides of the last row are not in the monitoring field of vision. Just now, the couple in Hall 4 happened to be sitting on the edge of the monitoring corner, and I could only see one of them.

In addition to the monitoring in the cinema, there is also monitoring next to the projector, mainly for real-time observation of the projector.

Lawyer Chen Jianjun made it clear that if the cinema staff maliciously posted some behaviors that violated public order and good customs in the cinema, if the circumstances were serious and the social impact was bad, they might be investigated for criminal responsibility.
