I guess I have a different viewpoint from a lot here but my goal is to have a successful hunt. Success for me early in the season is putting fresh venison, that I enjoy eating, in my freezer. Once that's accomplished, success is just being in a position to see wildlife and enjoying the stress free great outdoors. Seeing the woods come alive at dawn, squirrels chasing one another, birds singing, wood peckers pecking, turkeys scratching in the leaves, bucks chasing hot does, and so on. If I shoot a mature buck, then that's a bonus, but honestly it's not why I'm out there and I probably let 80-90% walk on by.
I use technology of all kinds that make achieving my goal easier, including cameras. When I started hunting as a kid 40 years ago, we used a group of a guys, CB radios, 4x4 pickups, and a pack of dogs to chase the deer into openings where we could get a shot. A lot of folks around here still do that but I've changed tactics because hunting that way is very expensive, deer are plentiful now, and does are legal. I also use to hunt with a bow and muzzle loader during those seasons. Why, because it extended the season, giving me a better chance at being sucessful. Nowadays, scoped rifles are legal on private land even in muzzle loading season. Guess what I hunt with? That's right, a scoped rifle exclusively, with the bow and muzzle loader collecting dust. I'm just as satisfied with a deer killed by a rifle as I was with a bow. The animal is the prey, I'm the predator, being fair has nothing to do with it. If it did, I'd be using a bow or some other truly primitive weapon exclusively.
I do not hunt public land though and I can see how a dozen cameras hanging over a water hole would be annoying. But instead of outlawing them, why not make it illegal to leave them overnight on public land, like it is with tree stands? Seems like a simple solution that would eliminate the problem, without outlawing the tool itself.
