You have the right to ask.

I'm pretty sure they have the right to refuse.

I don't think there are any laws that ban filming in a playground.

You absolutely should point it out that none of the children's parents have consent. Really annoys me when you see footage of lots of kids eg at a playground, party or performance and you just know they didn't get parents permission.

Why is he filming the playground?

Definitely ask them to stop. I don't know the law, but filming children you don't know and putting it on YouTube is a very strange thing to do.

I would personally speak to the school about your concern. I know at my children’s school you are not allowed to film or take pictures inside the school but not sure where you stand with it being on the playground.

You don’t need permission in a public place.

People are allowed to film in a public place

Shout Nonce Nonce and point at him.

I'd imagine that would deter him

Is the YouTuber:
a) filming your children in the park and posting it online;
b) filming in a park where your children happen to be and putting it online?

If a) then YANBU to ask them to stop, if b) then YABU to ask them to stop. Either way, you have almost no chance of any legal recourse.

I think the OP means a playground, not school grounds. I don’t believe there are laws prohibiting filming, but may be wrong.

Just loudly sing a copyrighted song with litigious writers every time she's there. And teach the other parents to do the same.

Are you talking about a school playground or a an outside playground (park)?

You have the right to ask, they have the right to refuse. You don't have the (legal) right to make them delete any images.

If I am honest I struggle to believe a well known Youtuber would be silly enough to put anything with more than a brief snapshot of anyone's face on Youtube - no one I watch ever does.

filmlondon.org.uk/resource/filming-people this seems to set out some of the law in England and Wales. Not sure if Scotland is different. That says that the bar is set much higher where children are concerned. Is this a school playground ,( in which case I'd argue it's not a public place and the school can require them to stop) or a park?

I assumed this was a playground in a park rather than a school?

You don’t need to consent to film people in public except in a few narrow exceptions.

Weird you assume it’s a him.

Presumably you could stand in front of them/your child if you didn't want them included in their video?

I vaguely recall a case where someone was (I think) convicted (but definitely at least charged) for something very similar after the guy they were knowingly falsely accusing of being a paedophile was beaten up.

You can ask.

They can refuse if its a public space.

Total dick if they do refuse though.

I think whether they’re a dick or not depends on a few things that OP hasn’t said. Her children may not even have appeared in shot at any time.

Is this in the USA?

Give over.

Male or female it will work.

Fair enough
