Don't buy the lie!
The BLM already has a similar policy and they implement it randomly, like when they want to intimidate or harass someone or extort more funds out of a event, and this is what the Forest Service will do.
One more of "one thousand cuts", they are boiling us frogs.
Before you trust these stewards of OUR LAND read this article and watch the video. This is a friend of mine from before she, Brooke Fantelli, was Rodd Fantelli. I have talked to her since this happened and it was very bad.

The BLM alleges they were taking "commercial photographs" as justification for their actions.
Rodd and now Brooke is an off-road racer and fabricator (on a very limited budget) who has a "vintage" Datsun race truck she races in the Mexican 1000. They were out in the middle of the desert by Plaster City, bothering no one, hanging out with friends and taking pictures of her truck. We are talking about a less than $10,000 race truck that makes her no money and only costs to own. But, because it is considered professional racing and she does fabrication out of her home in Ramona, it was deemed "commercial".
So, you never know when Ranger Rick is going to decide your photos for your blog are commercial and use it as a ruse to control you or fine you.
Don't buy the lie, "I'm from the government, and I'm here to help".
