<br>
It's not beyond the realm of possibility that somebody could both want<br>
to be active in the profession (part of which often entails giving<br>
presentations) and have very good reasons for not wanting their<br>
photograph taken. Or even very bad reasons; the reason isn't really<br>
our business.<br>
<br>
While I would agree that the default speaker's agreement should<br>
include the right for the conference to take photographs, make audio<br>
and video recordings of their presentation, and distribute their<br>
slides, I think it's reasonable for the program committee to have<br>
leeway to make exceptions.<br>
<br>
If a speaker doesn't want to be photographed at all, while the<br>
conference obviously couldn't make a guarantee that images taken by<br>
the audience won't end up on social media, it's certainly in its power<br>
to do things like add notes to the program requesting that a<br>
particular presentation not be photographed.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
<br>
