I wonder how long it will take for her to be sued for invasion of privacy?

I wonder how long it will take for a criminal to spread somebody elses DNA at the scene of the crime?

Meh.  That possibility has existed for a long time, ever since they started looking for that stuff, and especially since shows like CSI brought it to public awareness (well, that and the OJ Simpson trial).

And honestly peeps... your genetic information gets left everywhere.  You leave skin flakes on door knobs, your saliva on napkins, we shed pretty constantly... and that says  nothing about how much men like to go around and purposefully spread their DNA (if you know what I mean).  Pretending like this is some huge invasion of privacy and "oh god, how could they" is just silly.

Fair enough.
But does that give somebody the right to take your DNA and make models of you? Without your consent and without payment?

Why not? She is picking up DNA left in public areas.

So?
How does that make it right?

So if someone leaves their kid in a public place, I can take him/ her?

Generally the police take the kid away from you, and they take you to jail for being such a great parent. In any case, your rights are different in public places. You have a right to privacy, but if you are doing something in a public place, like having sex, others can video tape it.

Um... yeah, actually.  See, if you're walking down a public street, I can take a picture of you.  I can then go home and draw you into some pretty debasing porn.  I can then sell the porn.  All without your consent or payment.

That she's doing it with hair is, yeah, creepier.  But it's essentially the same.

Promises, promises...

A hypothetical is not a promise, and I don't actually draw porn.  I tried once, but I couldn't get the expressions to look right and it didn't look hot.  And if you're not aroused by the porn you've just made, then you're probably doing it wrong.

So I've given up on that.

How disappointing.
I just don't think you applied yourself.

Why don't you try again, send the pics to me, and I will judge how good they are?

Perhaps it not an invasion of privacy or whatever, But its definitely not art.
