Doesn't entirely stack up though, does it? This is the paradox of the internet - you can't post near-naked photos of yourself then complain that people are looking at them.
What you CAN object to is people taking your photos and either pretending they are you or using your images to sell something else which you have nothing to do with - and that's not as unusual as it might sound!
All of the attached are advertisements which are using photos taken by me and which were stolen from my eBay listings probably 15 years ago! If that's what's happening to hers, I can understand her being pissed off - but at the same time; 'welcome to the modern world' because there's f... all you can do about it other than not post in the first place!
