Brad Pitt: an Example of Invasion of Privacy

Letter from Brad Pitt's Lawyers

Nude pictures of Brad Pitt were taken without his consent and published in Playgirl. (For a short story about this incident and the lawsuit to stop the publishing of the issue of Playgirl, see this article from Yahoo News.) Nude pictures of Brad Pitt were apparently also posted on the Internet. This letter from Brad Pitt’s lawyers warns people of the many legal consequences that could follow from this posting. It also suggests that people allowing these pictures to be posted may be vicariously liable.
