Good that you stood up for yourself, the all caps was downright weird. I don't think without consent and she in the end did the right thing. It was rude however to ask you why, I support you there.
New Bird is right but the lines are so blurred, I am sure the photographer knew doing so was not legal without your permission.
I'll start a new discussion in the social media section later then move this.
I have a funny thing about photos also and always avoid getting them taken, why, the only reason I can think is that I am a private person in some ways and never had many pictures taken of me as a child. Before I knew how Facebook and Linkedin operated I posted a picture of myself because a friend wanted to see my "girls"
The Linkedin link . Now all you have to do is Google me and you can see it, fortunately they got all the wrong contact information, city, state wrong but still it bothers me. I have nothing to hide but I didn't appreciate my picture getting hijacked. I am thankful they got all the wrong information because people from my past who were not supportive I don't want in my life or hand them a way to contact me and dredge all that back up again.
I will never go to Facebook again, cancelled the membership. I think I only visited once or twice years ago and had no idea my pic would be public information. I don't have horns out of the top of my head or anything I just don't like my picture taken also or more importantly blasted all over the Internet. Personally I think social media is just not for me, I don't want to meet people so desperately that I have no interest in meeting. I get a few invitations to join people's networks on Linkedin and just don't. Call it weird or whatever but I don't do it, can't see any purpose. My luck if I accepted they would get my contact information correct somehow.
I think as a society the line between privacy and public information is too blurred for my taste. I think these social mediums could be very dangerous for our community, the idea is to avoid contact not feed them information about where you are etc. If I want someone to have my information it would have to be a purpose that suits me.
I am proud you stuck up for yourself, it was none of her business why you wanted it removed.
