There was a big scandal maybe 10 years ago - it was in the Orange Co. Register - about a photographer who attended swim and polo meets around the co. and posted pictures of team members in their Speedos on his web site. (But I believe these UNI pix were taken by boys on that team themselves, not the photographer in question). Some people copied/pasted his pix on other sites where vulgar statements were made about what the viewer would "do to" certain boys they took a fancy to. Parents started seeing their sons, or sons of friends, on these sites and were justifiably angry. Threats were made against the photographer, who quickly disappeared, but was suspended from his job for months while being 'investigated.' All he did was post pix he had taken at a public event, and the case against him was finally dropped. But what a mess!
