Yahoo Sued Over Nude Images
Chris Richardson - Staff Writer - quoted in part

An Oregon woman is suing Yahoo for an estimated $3 million, claiming the portal site didn't remove nude images of her after saying it would do so.

Cecilia Barnes, 48, claims her ex-boyfriend created profiles of Ms. Barnes, featuring the images in question, as well as other personal information like her work phone number and email address. The plaintiff's ex would then engage in chat sessions, pretending to be Ms. Barnes and directing people to her images.

Because of her ex-boyfriend's exploits, people would show up at her work, expecting a sexual meeting. To combat this, Barnes requested Yahoo remove these profiles, to which she received no reply. Barnes continued her efforts, eventually getting a response from Mary Osako, the director of communications for Yahoo.

Until Yahoo agreed to remove the images, they were protected by federal law that prevents lawsuits over information posted by third parties. However, once Yahoo agreed to remove the images, Oregon law stipulates they are obligated to do so, according to her attorney.

Now Pictures Nude Remove

Good on her! I actually think that you cannot put a price on this kind of action. The woman was totally embarressed and therefor her ex should be held responsible for this as well. Yahoo did agree to take her pictures off, so therefor they should be held accountable.
It would also be hard to account for those pictures that have been downloaded by people...

Well she is fortunate that the law is on her side. But my question is, why in the first place, would you allow someone to take nude photographs of you? In my opinion, taking naked pictures of yourself, is asking for trouble. It may be difficult to predict what an individual may do, when the relationship ends on a sour note.
