I think I mostly agree with you here, though confess I've at least done some of that in the context of Disneyland and Coachella. I believe according to miss Manners anything done to embarrass or humiliate someone would be rude. Then again it still might be funny and wandering through the public market place makes you fair game to be photographed. Of course, also fair game to call the photographer an asshole - just don't assault him/her.
