[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Copyright and breach of privacy come to mind. [/quote]

I'll add it's kind of similar to leaving you a private voicemail or sending you a private written letter. My intent wasn't for China to hear/see it.[/quote]

So if I send Aunt Bea a picture of my son in his baseball uniform and Aunt Bea forwards it to her friend and says - "Look how cute Zach is!" - I could sue Aunt Bea for Copyright and breach of privacy?  Really?

Or does this Copyright/Breach of privacy just apply when Sexy Suzie sends Hot Howie a nude selfie and Hot Howie forwards the selfie to impress his wingman Dumb Dave?[/quote]

You can pretty much sue for anything. To actually prevail you would have to prove damages. Obviously, it would be much harder for you to prove damages from
Zach, and Sexy Suzie would have a much easier time proving damages (lost her job, can't find job as direct consequence of Hot Howie forwarding pics etc...)[/quote]

Suppose Hot Howie only forwarded the pics to Beavis and Butthead and Dumb Dave who will just gawk at them and tell Howie to send more. Maybe Howie also showed a few mutual friends who also knew Suzie socially but had no business dealings with her at all.   Suzie would be mortified to know that these people had been gawking at her, but beyond embarrassment/humiliation...what are her damages?[/quote]

This can go back and forth with endless possibilities to whatever scenario you pitch. Maybe Suzie is now clinically depressed, and has hefty therapy bills not covered by insurance. She's so mortified she can't go to work, and loses her home. [/quote]

So never mind that it's Suzie's personal responsibility for taking the picture in the first place and sending the picture to Howie.  Once received it becomes Howie's responsibility to safeguard the pic and never let another sole see it.....?  Maybe Howie is troubled that some chic sent him nudies of herself...

Trust me, I don't agree with what Howie did in sharing those pictures - it was a jerk move.  But that doesn't mean that it was smart of Suzie to take those selfies and send them to another person like that.
