How do you feel about taking picures of strangers in public places?

I've seen some fantastic photography where the subject is just going about their normal daily routine, but everytime i've said to myself "Right, lets get out and try this" I've been put off the idea before the camera has even come out of the bag.

I find myself feeling like i'm invading someones privacy or spying on them.

On another note, have you ever been confronted about snapping away in public by a person who wasn't happy for you to take their picture with out their permission or maybe by someone who didn't want you taking pictures at the particular location?
