I think this works.

I'd prefer to push for a policy which asks for _consent_ *before* taking
a picture. Note that thish is clearly different from what was stated in
this year's Code of Conduct: "If someone indicates they don't wish to be
photographed, respect that wish." → Here, people do not have to ask for
consent first but may take a picture and then the photographed person
can respond to that.

Furthermore, I would like to see a policy in which BoFs may be
explicitly choses by the participants to be no-photo zones, on top of
being marked as "non-recorded".

Cheers!
