The state of Florida, along with many other states in the Union and countries like Canada, UK, Australia, have very stringent laws about invasion of privacy.
You can NOT do:

(1) Appropriation: Unauthorized use of a person?s name or likeness to obtain some benefit.
(2) Intrusion: Physically or electronically intruding into one?s private quarters or person.
(3) Public Disclosure of Private Facts: Publication of private facts that are offensive to the reasonable person and not of legitimate public concern.
(4) False Light: Publication of facts that place a person in a false light even though the facts themselves may not be defamatory.
Your post about me drinking is a violation of the last 3.
Meanwhile,
the State of Florida recognizes my rights to disclose your or anybody else's:
(8) Disclosure of facts regarding a criminal case obtained from public documents does not give rise to claim for invasion of privacy. See Cape Publications, Inc. v. Hitchner, 549 So. 2d 1374, 1379 (Fla. 1989).
(9) Photograph taken in a public place does not give rise to claim for invasion of privacy. See Heath v. Playboy Enterprises, Inc., 732 F. Supp. 1145, 1148 (S.D. Fla. 1990).
(10) Disclosure of facts obtained from public records or proceedings do not give rise to invasion of privacy claim. See Heath v. Playboy Enterprises, Inc., 732 F. Supp. 1145, 1148 (S.D. Fla. 1990).
I strongly suggest all flame warriors get themselves familiar with:

(Web privacy, false light and defamation laws)
and

to avoid spending money on legal representations, as some of the violations considered CRIMES and involve prison sentences.
have a very pleasant weekend everyone.
