A federal district court in Oklahoma dismissed a private facts claim when the father of an Oklahoma Army National Guard soldier killed in Iraq sued when photographs of his son's open casket were published. The U.S. Court of Appeals in Denver (10th Cir.) upheld the dismissal, finding that since die soldier's family members "opened up the funeral scene to the public eye," they could not assert any invasion of privacy claim. Private facts: A teenager appeared on a talk show and attacked her stepmother's character, and the stepmother, who also appeared on the show, responded by reading to the studio audience a police report that described the teenager as having been "engaged in violent, abusive, indecent, profane, boisterous, unreasonably loud behavior," and having "threatened to hit othe...

The concept of a legal right to privacy existed long before 1890 when Samuel D. Warren and Louis D. Brandeis published their much-acclaimed Harvard Law Review article advocating tort liability for invasions of privacy by publication. A number of writers and public intellectuals had already dramatized a need for protecting people from the prying of the press. Their essays upheld Victorian social standards and typically assigned blame to commercial pressures on journalists to satisfy public appetites. Attempting to resolve a conflict between civility and civil liberties, they either endorsed as much self-regulation as possible or called for a legal remedy. Nineteenth-century privacy advocates raised issues of audience tastes and media ethics that remain contentious today.

This Article provides the first comprehensive analysis of the law and policy of privacy on social network sites, using Facebook as its principal example. It explains how Facebook users socialize on the site, why they misunderstand the risks involved, and how their privacy suffers as a result. Facebook offers a socially compelling platform that also facilitates peer-to-peer privacy violations: users harming each others' privacy interests. These two facts are inextricably linked; people use Facebook with the goal of sharing information about themselves. Policymakers cannot make Facebook completely safe, but they can help people use it safely. The Article makes this case by presenting a rich, factually grounded description of the social dynamics of privacy on Facebook. It then uses that d...
