Consumer Electronics Association: Camera Phone Code of Conduct

The Consumer Electronics Association has an introductory webpage with a link to a Camera Phone Code of Conduct (PDF). The rules seem reasonable enough to me:

1. Camera phones should not be used where photographic equipment is typically banned, for example: museums, movie theaters, and live performances. Users should look for signs posted in public places. which indicate whether photographic equipment is banned.
2. Camera phones should not be used in public areas considered 'private' by those who use them, for example: bathrooms, changing rooms, and gym locker rooms.
3. Camera phones should not be used without authorization to record and/or transfer confidential information. This may apply within a corporate, government or educational environment.
4. Camera phones should not be used to take photos of individuals without their knowledge and consent.
5. Discretion is advised when using your camera phone to take photos of individuals under the age of 18.
6. Safety is paramount when operating a motor vehicle. Users should refrain from using the camera or video function of a wireless phone when driving.
7. Camera phone users should always respect the privacy of others. Photography of individuals without their consent, when and where they have a reasonable expectation of privacy, may be prohibited by law.

I think folks on the videoblogging list have generally been pretty good, but the motor vehicle rule may be problematic.
