Could not disagree more. We live-stream local events all the time with a very unobtrusive webcam/ustream and it bothers no one who is there but benefits all who are not.
Best,
Katrin

Hi,
I don't think this is a good idea. It kills the local atmosphere without having any real benefit. Every decision/code and most likely slides will be public anyway.

in my opinion holger is thinking that " it might become odd for people in conference to present as it is being streamed live.or also they wont be able to act freely"
i think people are more interested to supporting main aim of meet.so even if there is no proper protocol of communication is very much ok(please correct me if i am wrong)

And I couldn't disagree more with you. The mere existance of the two words 'camera' and 'unobtrusive' in one sentence are a contradiction in terms.
If I want to meet with a small group of people and informally discuss technical topic, than that is _very_ different from being live streamed to an unknonwn number of people, any of which could make recordings and I would have to very carefully think about each and every word that I'm saying. That's not a particularly relaxed environment and would kill all the fun there is in having the meeting in the first place.
Legally, In Germany this corresponds to "not publicly spoken word" (nicht oeffentlich gesprochenes Wort). It is punishable under law to record or broadcast that. (Clause 201 of German criminal code).
