My own emotions are different. I wouldn’t mind being one of the people in the mud pit, having my photo taken unknowingly amidst such a large group.
Also, on the issue of consent: If we required consent from each person in such photographs, it would be nearly impossible to ever publish photographs of large groups of people.
Re: consent… sure, I agree. Or at least more difficult. That doesn’t change my conclusions about how consent informs my judgment of whether a particular act is OK.
Re: your emotions… fair enough. If I use you as a reference class for those folks instead of me, my conclusion changes.
