Yeah. But this is the thread where two proponents of "sending a message" are using the Nuremberg Trials as a case-study.

So people should quite obviously chill a bit. Even if the pitchfork-people in this thread only wish bad PR upon this company, thousands of people are reading these threads, and it only takes one slightly unstable personality to think he'll be a hero for the community if he publishes the CEO's honeymoon photos (or whatever).

Also, to keep this in perspective: they did nothing illegal. Changing the rules is a much better course of action than vigilant justice if you believe this to be wrong.



Is publishing honeymoon photos illegal? (I'm presuming nothing compromising.) If the photos were taken in a public place, then they are legal, and then therefore no harm done, right?


It depends of which country you are talking about.
