I'm a Computer Science undergraduate in my final year studying at Reading University. I like music, movies, photography, reading and if I can ever get around to it, writing. Also a fan of horror, sci-fi and fantasy so there's plenty of re/blogging on those areas.
I write gig/event reviews at From The Pit
Currently conducting my Serotonin Experiment in a last ditch attempt to hopefully alleviate the symptoms of CFS/ME.

Preventing people from taking photographs in public spaces is ridiculous.
I imagine the “Terrorism Act” is cited quite often (but not necessarily any specific part) by private security as a reason why photography wouldn’t be allowed, even in public spaces. But it’s a stupid reason. It’s one step removed from insisting that passersby should cover their avert their gazes and cover their eyes as they walk by these places. Terrorists wouldn’t go to the trouble of doing reconnaissance with photography. All they’d need is a pen and a pad of paper and good memory would be a bonus. It would be less conspicuous. And if that was all they needed, then hell, the view from Google Maps might even be sufficient.
