Cheating death and fighting communism: that is how a fellow officer once described our job. It was meant to be funny, but as time went on it seemed all too true.
I spent more than ten years in law enforcement, all of it on the street in uniform patrol. I've been a patrol officer, instructor, sergeant and lieutenant.
Do not report crimes here. Nothing here should be considered legal advice. All opinions are my own.
It depends. Call your local police department and ask for their assistance. They will know what to do.

Never bothered me.
I think I only had to say something to someone once who was recording me. In that case a pedestrian had been struck by a car and was laying in the road. The pedestrian was significantly injured. Some idiot decided he wanted to film the injured person and me. While distasteful, it isn't illegal. However, when the cell phone video superstar was standing in the roadway blocking the ambulance crew from getting to the injured party, I was happy to escort him to the sidewalk.

No. A police officer may not forcibly detain someone without reasonable suspicion of an illegal act.
Your example would be akin to police officers stopping someone because they had a Big Mac and you believe fast food isn't healthy. Police officers have enough to do just enforcing criminal laws. They should not play nanny too.
Share Answer: 
School record - probably. If you were charged with something, then criminal record - yes.
Share Answer: 
Yes, law enforcement addresses illegal activity on the internet. Jurisdiction is often the largest problem for these cases. For example, a police officer in the United States cannot prosecute someone who is outside of the USA.
