Peep Photography

Modern-day peeping Toms in Massachusetts, the sorts who get their thrills snapping "Upskirt" Photos on crowded subways, now have their behavior criminalized.

Gov. Deval Patrick signed a bill today, according to his office, making photographing or recording video under a person's clothing -- think down a blouse or up a skirt -- a misdemeanor.

The bill was hastily drawn up and passed by lawmakers Thursday, a day after the state's highest court ruled that current laws against secretly photographing a person in a state of partial n-dity don't apply to these sorts of secretive shots. Ref. CNN

You would think that a law like that would already be in the books but at least better late than never - no one likes a Peeping Tom!
