Rich Brits in luxury condos w/floor-to-ceiling windows not happy that normal people can see in. Don't want to install blinds.

And I'm saying that anyone would have probably done the same as them, regardless of how much money they have, but people are just using this as a reason to say "fuck the rich". I also said they are in a position to sort it out easily enough, so it's not like I'm taking their side. I just find it strange how someone's wealth is enough to elicit hatred.
Also, less well off people waste taxpayer money too btw, but again it's "fuck the rich".
If they can afford to live in those expensive as fuck apartments they can surely afford to either replace or modify the glass for privacy purposes without obstructing the view. Then again, that building is fucking hideous, so I guess the apartment owners are not exactly the sensible sort to begin with.

When I'm in those kinds of trapezoid/triangular rooms, I don't ever feel completely relaxed. I bet that subconsciously raises their stress levels.
Yeah they knew or should have known about the platform. It's a due diligence failure on the part of these condo owners. They can put up some screens.

Haha fuck these people. You buy a flat there you know what you're getting into. It's fucking infuriating how the rich just think they can move in and change their surroundings to suit them. Same with dodgy dealings in Glasgow whereby a long established and iconic nightclub The Arches shut down because someone was building a hotel nearby and seemingly wanted it shut down for noise issues. Bastards.
I wonder how many people actually cared before someone else in the building brought it up.
Also, poor rich people!

Pretty sure that Chelsea council was put under pressure to hurriedly prettify a tower block in its district because it was sullying the view for affluent residents in their luxury abodes. That was Grenfell Tower.
Probably. It should fall under Public Decency laws. Although it's in your home and not a public space, it is within public view. So I'm sure you could be charged if someone files a complaint.
I know the writers of You (on Netflix) never pondered this question
Beth never fucking closed her window shades, and she was on the ground floor. How there weren't crowds every time a guy was over confused me
I remember this story from a few years ago. I love it.
Fucking poor people: don't buy high rise condos that don't have privacy glass. I bet they don't even have SubZero appliances. Ugh, disgusting.
Not totally sure about the UK, but in the US, the answer is mostly no. If you're really egregious and obviously trying to get attention and expose children to obscenity, someone will hold you accountable in some way, but in terms of typical things like public indecency, exposure, etc., no, you're usually protected inside your own home especially from other non-public spaces. Laws vary from state to state, but in most places, you'd be protected.
But if you're overtly trying to offend people in public with lude acts in private, then you'll probably be held accountable for something, eventually. Like, if your house is across from a school or park and you install large picture windows and stand there with your dong out with the clear intention of goading children into looking at it, then... yeah, someone will find a law that you're clearly breaking.

It seems to be a general British thing. There are so many houses here that are right up to the footpath without any blinds or curtains in the windows. Everyone can just look in.
