In fact, most of them seemed quite polite in expressing their concerns regarding photography... Gear List

I refuse to believe that any of these people have signed a release and the video is used commercially. It may be on youtube, but meant to draw attention to their "organisation". And yep... That organisation is commercial in nature. And more than half the time, they were actually on PRIVATE property. What one should pay attention to here, is the general level of professionalism and politeness, of the police officers.
Photography is just a hobby for me.

The three "police actions" (a bit of a dramatic description by the film maker) were not out of line. Security personnel had concerns, so they called the police. Some security personnel were able to resolve things with the photographer directly. Gear List

I don't think any of the video could qualify for commercial. The video itself is an editorial on "authorities" reactions to public photography. It doesn't matter if the organization is commercial, only if the video is used in a commercial way. I would call this a news piece before calling it commercial. When used to promote a commercial organisation, the video is commercial. They even use these videos on their own site, so you can be pretty damn sure that my definition of commercial is correct.

Not only did they not get releases, they also knowingly and purposefully misled the individuals they are taking advantage of. I always watch things like this with a ridiculously large grain of salt, exactly for reasons such as the one you've pointed out... Gear List
