Dude, My Private Parts Are Pictured Online!

HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE gathered in Fairmount Park on Sunday for the Philly Naked Bike Ride, then stripped down to their birthday suits and rode bicycles through the city.

Just about everywhere they went, people took their pictures and shot video of them. A lot of those pictures and videos wound up online. Some even landed on news websites.

Are people allowed to shoot images and video and publish them online? Do the riders have any say in whether their naked asses wind up all over the Internet?

How should news outlets handle this story? Can they post images and video of people in various states of undress? If people are fully exposed, is it ethical for the news outlets to show them in all their naked glory?
