My take is simple. If someone puts themselves into the public arena, as any 'street' performer clearly does, then it is only to be expected that at some point a tourist, or other photographer, is going to take a snapshot of them to keep as a part of their memory lane collection. In my view it isn't unreasonable to take a photograph of such a street scene without being accosted by the said street performer. If, on the other hand, a tourist-cum-street photographer was taking a snapshot of a member of the general public going quietly about his or her business then it should be respected if the said person doesn't want to be photographed.
