Right Pete,
It is an important distinction to make, thanks for that. For example........
A person in the UK is having a meal in a restaurant. It's not exactly a private setting is it? Do they have an expectation of privacy?
Read https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Country_specific_consent_requirem... for the answer to that.
For those who are too lazy to click:
"Another recent court case "upheld a right to eat a meal in a restaurant in privacy even though the restaurant owner had consented to the photography, because in the court's view it was a customer's normal expectation not to be photographed there."
These are all the types of distinctions that we on Commons make every day; day in day out.
Regards,
Russavia

The "OR" inserted above is important to the paraphrase -- it's one of the things that often gets missed in this discussion.
