Woman sues Yahoo! for publishing nude photos

A WOMAN is suing Yahoo! for $3 million (£1.6 million), alleging that the web portal, content and search-engine company has failed to remove naked pictures of her posted by her former boyfriend.

In a lawsuit filed in Oregon, Cecilia Barnes, 48, claims that her former boyfriend began posting naked pictures of her in Yahoo! profiles, with her e-mail address and work telephone number, in December. She says that the photographs were taken without her knowledge.


Ms Barnes says that she sent a letter to Yahoo! in January, saying that she did not create the profiles and asking for them to be removed. She claims that Yahoo! did not respond to the letter and failed to remove the photographs.

Additional attempts to get Yahoo! to remove the profiles in February and March also failed, the lawsuit claims. A Yahoo! spokesman said that the company does not comment on pending litigation.
