That was also funny. The janitor had no idea. I would have pointed and laughed as I would have the right to after seeing something that stupid

It's pretty cut and dry legal right there.
there is no right to privacy in public.
And whoever takes an image owns the copy right to it as long it was lawfully obtained

Hmm, I thouht it was a mall survelleianc evideo.
As for cellphone it was in the public domain so no right to privacy.
I know there have been attempts to water this down lately in this country mostly to protect women from "mistakes" but I dont think they ahve been successul in changing this basic principleyet.

Cellphone vid?! Why is it so steady? And how did he know that there was a dumb girl abroad? I mean, was he just taping for the hell of it and caught something hystarically funny?

Cell phone recording a security camera feed. That is the crux of the problem. That original video was not the property of the person who released the unauthorized copy of it, but rather the mall. He messed up in that respect. She messed up by being her. :facepalm:

I can't help but think the only thing that could cause the government to pass legislation that would ban lawsuits deemed frivolous is if Brett Favre tries to sue God for making him too old to play in the NFL.

Stick a big red button in front of someone and they'll push it eventually. People are dumb. They're driven to do dumb things. I say we give them all cliffs and wait patiently.

The mall can do whatever it wants with its security footage. It doesnt need her permission to publish what it collected. The only point of conflict would be between the mall and the security officer.

This is why the lawsuit was dropped.
