Security stops photographer from taking photos of umbrellas outside a UK mall
by 19 Comments
Earlier this week, 150 umbrellas were put up in Culver Square, a shopping mall in Colchester, Essex, UK.

They allegedly told him that taking photos was forbidden and that he should have permission from the management.

Facebook’s takeover of Instagram becomes more apparent by the day. We’ve seen ads, selective algorithm driven feeds, business pages and other features. Some good, some bad.
