Yep as long as the site says that your pictures cannot be used out side the site. Then they should persue those people who breach this confidence. So firstly did he relinquish the private nature of his pics and secondly make the paper disclose who provided the pic then pesue them with the law.

Expensive but pretty sure we/you will all agree to additional levies to support your privacy right??

If you put photos on the internet they are in effect in the public domain. As an interesting aside copyright would actually only belong to the person who took the photo not the subject.

Copyright law is tortuous at best; anyone here going to risk tens of thousands of pounds in legal fees taking a copyright case to court? No I thought not - so if you don't want photos being used by others; don't post them on the internet.

It's on the daily mail website, the username is listed on there but has either deleted or hidden profile according to the article, they even went as far as to give snippets of his verifications!

The issue appears to be him posing in his uniform

I was once outed by some club owners to my boss who they met socially once, it was when I was a couple, to say I was mad is an understatement, the club no longer exists and I had many happy times in there, afraid now all soured by the comments about my attendance.....

I wouldn't bother pursuing it under copyright law. I'm not a lawyer but s33 and s34 of the criminal justice and courts act 2015 are probably best bet.

[tongue firmly in cheek]

As an aside... his comment "I did nothing illegal, just daft"... as it is an offence to impersonate a police office, he is probably the one 'police officer' on here not doing anything illegal lol.

Only thing he's done is show his pic with his uniform on. Bit stupid but not the worst thing in the world. His lifestyle choice is his own business. If it doesn't affect the ability to perform his job duties there shouldn't be a problem. Don't think his conduct is questionable unless he had meets on duty whilst in his uniform. I think they'd find it very difficult to sack him. But with the media involved they could panic and be rash

The media has a lot to answer for sometimes. They are heartless when it comes to bad press and gossip and only ever print one side of the story.

But then why put a profile picture up of yourself, especially your face. I don't understand why anyone shows their faces if they have things in their private life that could be jeapordised. It's just plain stupid. This is a sex site on the internet, nothing is totally secure but each person should minimise their own risks.

He's obviously been a tool and used his occupation as an advantage over others and it's bit him on the arse. But it's his personal life and shouldn't be an issue with his job.

This should be a good warning to people that there are people on the site looking for a story. You can't know who is looking at your profile or why someone chats to you. The reporter must have had enough information to find out where the man lived, if they knocked on his door.

Is there a law against harassment that could be applied?

We've never posted on here what we do for a job and to be honest it possibly would attract more people but probably more weirdos too. We don't really divulge that much when we meet.

This is exactly why I never send out face pics to anyone who asks or post them on my profile. This is also the reason I will only meet Verified guys only. After what happened at swingfields think about it!! Newspaper are constantly seeking stories and 10 years ago it was vice girls in flats which they seemed to do to death. Now they are turning their attention to swinging. And let's be honest here, it is easy for an undercover reporter to put a profile on here and trawl through the site seeking to meet someone the think may have a rather interesting profile... If they have a high profile job then even better! It never fails to amaze me how folk can let their guard down on fab and yes I would prefer to err on the side of caution - if I get less meets then I can easily live with that.

I think the issue is that when you join you have to agree to certain rules. Posting or sharing pics in uniform likely go against rules on bringing discredit on the service and potentially opening yourself up to blackmail, although guess that depends on how open he was with family and so on about it.

Not quite sure how that dovetails with human rights legislation but it's what you sign up to. I have a degree of sympathy, especially if it was sent in a message but it was pretty daft.

The paper used the pics that police officer sent the lady who blew his indenty on here. Therefore "his" pics no longer belonged to him.

Also this is a public site so I'm told. As such everyone's pics are open to anyone to "steal". Which is why I'm stunned when people put their face pic as public.

Anyone thinking their personal life is just personal and shouldn't be exposed in this day and age of freedom of speech and media doing what they're paid to do by the readers and their employers is just plain naive. There is really no such thing as respect of privacy in this day and age.

If you respect your privacy it's up to you to protect it no one else is concerned for your privacy. Sounds a bit harsh but it's the reality we all live in now.

They may have even met genuine users to gain "credibility". Often the best place to hide is "in plain site".

They can then say "I've got nothing to hide" etc.

That what everyone who is duplicitous says.

They feel it gains trust.

This site is great but there ARE journalists here, just aire on the side of caution as you don't want egg on your face if you end up being a bloody story.

A woman was recently named and had her address appear in the paper from

Fab.

"

Totally agree. Papers are looking for a juicy story and if you have a high profile job you definitely may be asking for trouble! The interest won't go away...swinging stories will sell papers. Yes there are undercover reporters no doubt posing as members so best to always be ultra cautious in who you meet.

The photos of him in the sun have the fabswingers stamp and webaddress on the bottom and his user name is given out. Risky job or not giving out his user name is not on.

"Blaming the media is a bit like going out and getting d*unk and then blaming the drink when you got raped..."

You see, that's victim blaming.

This is the media's fault. 100%. It's not his fault for completely legally going about his business. It's the shitty newspapers fault for thinking that this is news.

Also this is a public site so I'm told. As such everyone's pics are open to anyone to "steal". Which is why I'm stunned when people put their face pic as public. "

Some of us don't have any problem with being "outed" because we're already out.

totally a leap into something out of context with your analogy..

the media sell shit because people buy it and people like to read about other's salacious shenanigans..

security for police is also an issue, as well as members of the armed forces in the current climate..

compromising oneself and one's possible family is not sensible..

if you can't or are not willing to look at the facts that some occupations need to be a bit savvy then fine..

his business in privacy is not the issue for his employer, its his using his uniform that's got him into the papers'..

agree its not news..

I disagree. In police training school, this officer would have had it drummed into him not to identify himself as a police officer on the internet as well as in person unless it is to place himself on duty. After passing out, the police professionals standards department would have held talks about this at least every year.

If this officer sent photographs of himself (*in uniform) then he knew the risk that he may be sacked for bringing the job into disrepute. If is was not in uniform then it would likely not be a problem.

I'm an employer with a medium size work force and if any of my employees were on fab posing in a photograph wearing their name badges then I'd sack them immediately (and then block them on here!). If my employees are on here but do not identify my company then I'll block and move on as they have a right to be here.

Never fails to amaze us how many people think The Sun, Daily Mail etc. are news papers . The papers news papers in this country are no more than comics.
