Street photography isn’t so bad, as long as it’s not a hidden cam.
I don’t generally like my picture taken, but I’d have no problem if it just some person with a real camera taking casual pictures of crowds for fun.
What makes it creepy (to me) if it’s someone trying to hide it with a smartphone, or Meta glasses.
edit: It’s also nothing new. Street photographers have been around forever, long before digital cameras. It was pretty acceptable when I was a kid with a flip phone.

This is not a street. It’s within an enclosed space
Its still nothing new though. These photos are from 1980, Bruce Davidson:
