"Why is it the law has to change? If it was me walking down the street or eating at an ice cream shoppe, why is it OK for him to violate my privacy just becasue it is easy to do with technology??
If you are walking down the street in public, you know where everyone can see you in Public view, you really can't expect too much privacy. If you want privacy you should probably not go out in public . . .
Sculpture is different from a photograph. It is possible to copyright a photo of something. Claiming copyright of someone else’s photograph of your sculpture is very different. You can’t claim copyright of a two dimensional representation of your three dimensional sculpture, it is a new work. This has been held by the courts for some time.
