Sharing private information-without knowledge or consent

  • Unknown's avatar

    So there’s this, uh hm, bitch-that’s the only time I’ll use the word-who I was firends with on FB and two and a half months after we were corresponding she emails my mother who she knew I was not on the greatest terms with….pretty creepy if you ask me. She’d have had to spend time looking up info, compiling the email, and sending the email. I wilfully gave her info, because I thought I could trust her with it. It’s not like I would do something like that to her. Total violation of boundaries and trust-and just plain creepy. She goes by F_Le_Rulz. Maybe I shouldn’t have commented on her wordpress blog but then again, I have the right to express myself. Then she goes on and blogs about this entire thing-what should I do? Can she be forced to take down that entry? Can she be kicked off wordpress for violating someone’s privacy rights? I had no idea and did not give her permission to blog about something that happened between us.
