I think it is a good policy not to have them at nudist locations because it keeps the privacy of the members and visitors. However, I have seen cell phones more at the club I visit. These also have cameras. Not sure how to address this since people do need there cell phones more. How does ones privacy get protected. I always leave mine in my car and turn it off. I check it periodically in the car to make sure I respect the rules.
Now the younger generation has to be available second by second by texting!
I too grew up before electronic phones, answering machines etc. As a youngster, the telephone was not an important communication device for me. I simply got on my bike and rode over to a friends place to ask if he could play. If he couldn't, well I rode back, and played outside doing something else, or what the heck, I'm all ready on my bike, i'm going riding around! The excercise we kids got back then simply from going from one place to another in order to communicate is nothing comparable to what kids do these days. They are missing out on so much more than exercise and socializing. How about the simple joy of being outside to feel the wind blowing through your hair, or the sun on your back, etc.
Unfortuneately having cameras in every phone has had a negative effect on the spontaneous nudity we used to see at the biking and running, and canoeevents we attend. It used to be common place for everyone to strip and get into the river along the bike ride on a hot summer day but now people are too scared of being photographed. Wonder how many people now don't have that opportunity to discover they like nudism because of too many idiots with cameras?
I was reading yesterday about Google Glass and from what I read a lot of the sun glass manufacturers are getting onto the Google Glass band wagon, and if anyone watched "the Crazy Ones" with Robin Williams they were showing how someone could be taking a picture while you just thought the were looking at you. So I see this as a point of concern for people who are worried about having their picture taken. I for one years ago when they first added camera's to phones gave up the idea that I would never have a photo taken on myself without my knowledge. I am sure it has happened, I know it has happened to my wife because I have sen her in photo's posted on line.
Nudist resorts need to adjust their policies to the modern times. They need to get into the 21st Century. Yes I liked the old rules but technology has made them obsolete. Now the only ones who don't have a camera are us old fuddy-duddies who are still obeying the rules we were brought up on. It's time for everyone to move on. Maybe we should require everyone to hang their camera or phone around their neck so everyone knows what they are doing with it.

I think there would be quite a bit of resistance to Google Glass ata nudist resort. Just recently several people have been accosted in the streets of San Francisco for wearing Google Glass in public.
https://mashable.com/2014/04/13/google-glass-wearer-attacked/Real cameras, and phone cameras are going to stand out at a nudist resort or beach, meaning to say f the person is naked it will be clear they have something they are carrying. SO I have no problem with cameras in a nudist resort. As a photographer, if I want to take someones photo I always ask, even if they are ina public place where privacy cannot be expected.Those who want to sneak a photo will be more obviously doing so at a nudist resort than anywhere else. I say normal societal rules should apply. To post a photo of someone, one is meant to get the subject to sign a document allowing you to do so. Regular laws give plenty of protection. Of course the freaks will ignore all rules and laws anyway, so why limit the lawful and responsible adults, by definition, rules and laws don't apply to law breakers.?
