>In Japan, the shutter sound on mobile phones and cameras is required to be audible. This practice was introduced to address concerns related to privacy and prevent covert photography in public spaces. The audible shutter sound is meant to deter inappropriate or unauthorized photography, particularly in situations where individuals' privacy might be at risk, such as in public restrooms, changing rooms, or crowded public transportation. Because of this regulation, most smartphones sold in Japan, including those from major manufacturers like Apple and Samsung, have a non-disabling shutter sound feature when taking photos. This applies even when the phone is set to silent or vibrate mode.
