Legalities of Exploiting X-Girlfriend Footage. - GoFuckYourself.com

liquidkid · 12-26-2004, 02:40 AM

Alright, so I have hours and hours of footage of my exgirlfriend who I recently delt with cheating on me, well kinda, long story. Anyway, I want to put this footage out there and I'm wondering about the legalities of doing so. She was 18+ in all the footage, she knew she was being videotaped (posing for the camera, setting it up, etc..), it was in my house, my camera, my tape. Only thing I'm worried about is she may counter with us having sexual relations when she was underage (I was only 19 so don't give me shit). Give me some input.

Unless she signs a model release, I don't think you can legally use it.

I'm not gonna bother to lecture you on your stupidity though.

no doubt... how would you like it if she put those videos of your small penis for the world to see?

I think I read someplace that it was legal to post to GFY though.

To be honest, I don't know.

But I'm pretty confident that this dude can't use these videos for profit without her permission. For starters, he might have a hard time proving she was 18+ at the time of the footage.

Not to mention both Pamela Anderson tapes, the TV newsgirl tape, the pictures of Dr. Laura, etc, etc.

I think because all those people are famous, and so the person who has the tape can say it's news worthy, and the public have a right to know.

I had a similiar situation like this a few years ago.

This girl pissed one of my friends off and he was able to obtain footage of her stripping.

To make a long story short her made fliers of vid caps from the video and passed them all around the campus, @ local clubs and of course her dorm.

He was arrested and charged with some type of criminal stalking *BECAUSE* he had her real name, phone number, address and email address.

In the state of Oklahoma whatever he did was damn near as bad as murder. His lawyer told him that if he hadn't have put her real info on the fliers then he would not have been facing a felony.

You are one fucked up asshole. So because she hurt you, you think it is fine and dandy to get revenge by ruining her life? Grow up.

In Pamela's case they eventually agreed to have it released and take a cut, from what I had heard.

I need you to post some sample clips here first before I give you my input.

r3ap3r · 12-26-2004, 11:04 PM

Keep the tapes to yourself. Get back at her by fucking her bestfriend or her mom :love-smil

Same here, we really need to make an informed decision

I Like Chocolate · 12-26-2004, 11:43 PM

It's ok you can post it here, we wont tell anyone.....

Id prob just watch the tape with your buddies, rather than spread it across the net.

QuaWee · 12-26-2004, 11:47 PM

i would send it to her parents if I were you

Napolean · 12-26-2004, 11:50 PM
