    according to google

    Pennsylvania Wiretapping Law
    Pennsylvania's wiretapping law is a "two-party consent" law. Pennsylvania makes it a crime to intercept or record a telephone call or conversation unless all parties to the conversation consent. See 18 Pa. Cons. Stat. § 5703 (link is to the entire code, choose Title 18, Part II, Article F, Chapter 57, Subchapter B, and then the specific provision).

    Recording someone on the street has nothing to do with WireTapping laws.

    Prepare to get sick reading that...

    Cliff Notes: You can be arrested for doing absolutely NOTHING illegal, JAILED and held... and then after proven INNOCENT, if you sue for an illegal arrest, civil rights violations, etc... the cops get off because of "qualified immunity".
