I have some sheets myself. I also have a bicentennial $2 bill.

Woz is purposely being misleading in the video, if you read the link I posted from his site you can tell that "being misleading" is apparently a hobby of his

Possibly because of the interviewer, I was a little confused as to how Woz was "printing" 2 dollar bills. After reading this though it's clear that what he actually does is cut up the sheets of legit $2's and uses his machine to perforate them and bind them in the notebook.

Some guy standing out front of your house taking pictures - whilst is his right - is an entirely different matter. Soemone taking shots of a secured facility like a nuclear plant is another still. However, someone taking pictures in a quasi-public place such as a mall is the height of rampant paranoia. The staff from the ice-cream became suspicious? Yeah, because families never go to malls or take pictures of their kids doing shit like enjoying ice cream. It's no wonder these idiots work in an ice-cream shop in a mall in the first place! Like some terrorist is going to walk in by himself dressed like a muslim going to Haj taking pictures of strategic places to plant a bomb and muttering "Alluh Akbar" all the while. It just boggles the fucking mind.

Couple that with the fact that Britain is pretty much and Orwellian nightmare as it is with CCTV covering cities top to bottom and all I can say is I'm glad I don't live there, and I don't want that sort of shit ending up here. Ben Franklin was right on what he said then and it goes doubly so now.

Father can't take a picture of his child enjoying some ice-cream because of a bunch of paranoid morons? And some people wonder why I have near zero faith in humanity. George Orwell must be laughing his ass off right now.

When I read the title, I figured it was because they were afraid he was a pedo or something.

But it turned out it was because he was being "dangerous to security." Really?

If a psycho-bomber (or a terrorist) was scoping out the place he'd (A) be more covert and (B) not rely on photos but sketches / approx measurements / blueprints / etc.

Then again, I'd probably get annoyed if some guy was standing on the street in front of my house continuously taking pictures of my house... but that's another matter.
