Oh, now I remember again why we kicked these guys off the premises. They're basically a right-wing russian propaganda outfit ... unfortunately, we can't stop them from filming anyone on public grounds.

State propaganda, to be exact. They are a subsidiary of Russia Today ("RT"), which owned by the Russian state via RIA Novosti. Ruptly mainly provides (uncommented, but suitably edited) war propaganda the Russian point of view on conflicts between Russia or its neighbours and other states, as well as reports about the supposed decadence of "the West".

They pulled the very same stunt at Anthrocon this year, by the way.

=O___O= What are THEY doing here? Pfff...

Purely Putin's state propaganda (the same dang as "RT") owned by the Russian government.
Nothing but blatant propaganda of Russian Way of Life and questionable facts to show how bad the neighbors are.

I wonder what they voiced over that footage.

By the way, photographer Adam Berry made several photographs and sold them to Getty Images without asking the people being shown beforehand. He reportedly didn't delete photos as requested when caught. Unfortunately, it was not brought to our attention while he was here, but I don't remember him contacting us at all, and he reportedly didn't wear a press badge. You can find the thumbnails by searching for "Eurofurence" http://www.gettyimages.de/

If you find a picture that was shot without your consent, especially in a private area, and shows your face (not fursuit!) as the main subject, and you don't agree with it, please contact Getty Images and ask them to remove the picture from their catalogue and recall it from all online publications that licensed it.

The AFP pictures by Odd Andersen that are showing up in the same search are looking okay to me, by the way.

Looks like he/they have already sold some pics to the media:

Funnily enough I actually saw the Russia Today people when they were filming in the hotel lobby, in fact I actually made a tweet about it at the time! https://twitter.com/jamesthedog2001/status/502797421022576641

Yeah, that one came out quite ok, but I am wondering about the footage from the artshow. Were they allowed to film there? Some of that footage looks like it was taken secretly. Luckily enough they didn't show the adult stuff.
Alpha Ki did a good job with that interview, although it was shortened as usual.

Yes, all filming was fully authorised, including the artshow shots. The artists gave their permissions for the closeups.

As if that italian artist wasn't adult enough :)
