Should they enact some severe legal penalties for posting video or pictures of people without their consent?

Asked by Dutchess_III (46815points) October 17th, 2010

This was prompted by the question regarding the poor college student who committed suicide after a video of him having gay sex started circulating. Well, those same people who start that kind of thing know that if they’re caught stealing or breaking the law there will be consequences. But people start circulating personal and private video so very often that apparently they don’t expect any consequence for invading someones privacy in such a hideous, underhanded manner. In response to the first post by Syz…there ARE consequences, but why don’t people seem to know it?
