there was an article on the news about some guy that did a selfie in front of a star wars cardboard cutout, but apparently there were some kids standing nearby and some lady allegedly took a picture of the guy and put him on social media only for him to get labelled as a pedafile and it went viral. and hes been copping it since. its made me think that this sort of thing would be no different to defamation. the article was in todays news whats your opinion?
in turned out the guy was a family man who posted a selfie and sent it to his wife and kids.
its different if you were caught in the act of doing something wrong, then it would be ok to film, but to just make assumptions on a basis where you are imagining or conjuring something that has not happened is grossly defamatory in my opinion. and the person who circulates it should be liable
