Hey, this is great reading!! A lot of different opinions and very good legal commentary. We all should know the basics of tort law to handle disputes or, better yet, avoid them.
I'd like to point out that an individual may have the law on their side in these "copyright" or "privacy" disputes. However, legal remedies are very difficult and expensive to pursue. First, you have to identify and locate the offender (try finding a dishonest eBayer). Then, there may be substantial legal fees and court costs. Next, the outcome in court is always uncertain. Finally, it may be next to impossible to collect on any judgment rendered by the court. Been there, done that.
So, you have to ask yourself if all the effort is worth the time, money and aggravation. Ask anyone who's been in similar legal proceedings.
Just my two cents...
Paul
