Especially with the photo capabilities of cel phones plus connectivity, are expectations of privacy almost a thing of the past? Where is the line drawn between what someone can expect to be private, and what is more socially acceptable for another person to post?
Currently there is an incident where a woman who took a photo of a nude "senior" woman while in a locker room at a gym. The photographer then posted the photo on Snapchat, with a mean "body shaming" comment about the woman. The photographer faces a misdemeanor count of invasion of privacy.
LATimes states "Some states have increased the penalties for taking secret images, making it a felony". I wonder what Hawaii's laws and penalties are? In today's camera-at-hand lifestyle (ie cel phone), are we all fair game? Has Hawaii been proactive in protecting the pubic?
