And Pedro, it says in smallish print on that link that the video will be released on September 20th.

And unless the filmmakers voluntarily cave in, I doubt legality will hold up the DVD. I think it's been well established in the U.S. that if you're doing something in public, anyone can tape you doing it and sell it for profit. The interviews might be a different story, but in these cases they usually just ask you if it's OK to use the footage, while they're taping. If you say yes, it's that's considered consent, and you've basically waived your rights to whatever you do on tape. That's how the whole G1rls G0ne W1ld thing operates. And as I said, the posts on facebook implied the cameramen did ask permission before they interviewed people. So even if these guys are wrong ethically, I believe the law is on their side.
