To be clear, what I said or tried to say is that the streaming crew needs
to know if he presenter does not wish to be shown, or if they do not want
their presentation shown before they start presenting. At least one full
minute before would be great. They can take our word that we will honor
their wishes.

I think that it is fair to say that nobody involved with the video wants
anything to do with paperwork, and if anyone has the time and energy to do
that, their time would be better spent actually working on the video crew,
which at this point is virtually nonexistent.

Every presenter should know that we will be putting up video of their
session or talk on our YouTube channel with a CC license, unless they
demure. We should have a small sign to that effect at the podium, as well.
