My thoughts on the 'Revenge Porn' issue surfacing on main-stream news media tonight.
If you let someone take a photo of you naked or partially nude or for
any reason were a photo is being taken of you by someone other than
yourself.
This is considered a consensual act.
"In
History, a consensual contract is a contract that arises from the mere
consensus of the parties. It does not require the performance of any
formal or symbolic acts to fix the obligation. Although the consensual
contract was known to the common law, it originated in Roman law. In
Roman law, this embraced four kinds of contracts in which informal
consent alone was sufficient: (1) an agency agreement (2) a partnership
agreement, (3) a sale, or (4) a letting or hiring. Consensual contracts
require no formalities to create them out of the Pact. Consent of the
parties is more emphatically given in a consensual contract. When the
assent of parties is given, at once there forms a contract. " -http://definitions.uslegal.com/c/consensual-contract/
So you or someone is consenting to have someone else take a photo of them, and in America at least; Possession is 9/10ths of the law. -https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Possession_is_nine-tenths_of_the_law
So unless a written contract forbidding the sale of, and or the public
dissemination of is made. The owner of the photo(s) can sell, distribute
and or post and the like the photos taken of you.
So if these
people whining about their nakedness on porn sites were really truly
concerned they would not have taken the photos to begin with, or would
have made such contracts of law that would have forbid any release of
the photos beyond specified persons and or places.
I understand
that it is extremely embarrassing and may inadvertently affect their
life in various ways, and I do feel for them.
But we do not need any more laws limiting freedom of speech, just because some people cannot handle their own Sh*t!
