Look at me getting caught playing at being the cool street photography guy.
In retrospect it has been interesting seeing the shift in people's attitude when they discover they've been picked as a street photography subject. At least here in East Asia. Back in the day folks were either quite jolly about it or they were confused because surely they aren't interesting. As the smartphone and social media became more widespread to the point of ubiquity the attitudes became more hostile.
There are a lot of social and criminal stuff that happened as well that I won't get into simply because the details are enough to make you want to nuke humanity off of the face of the planet. And do it with a smile.
It's another reason why I don't practice/attempt street photography much these days. Society changed. You change with it or you die crying about it.
