Susanna Gibson, a Democrat running in one of seven tossup House seats in the closely divided legislature, denounced the “illegal invasion of my privacy.”
A Democratic candidate in a crucial race for the Virginia General Assembly denounced reports on Monday that she and her husband had performed live on a sexually explicit streaming site.
Susanna Gibson, a nurse practitioner running in her first election cycle, said in a statement that the leaks about the online activity were “an illegal invasion of my privacy designed to humiliate me and my family.”
The Washington Post and The Associated Press reported on Monday that tapes of live-streamed sexual activity had been recorded from a pornographic site and archived on another site. The New York Times has not independently verified the content of the videos. The Democratic Party of Virginia did not respond to a request for comment.
Ms. Gibson, 40, who appears on her campaign website in hospital scrubs as well as at home with her husband and two young children, is running for the House of Delegates in one of only a handful of competitive races that will determine control of the General Assembly. Republicans hold a slim majority in the House, and Democrats narrowly control the State Senate, but both chambers are up for grabs in November.
If you put your movie online, is it public domain? Just because it’s pornographic doesn’t make it public domain.
You’re right, porn doesn’t automatically become public domain. That would be strange. It’s public domain because they willingly agreed to the site’s terms of service that say so.
IIRC it said that it’s public not public domain. If you’re out in public (including your front yard) you have no expectation of privacy. That doesn’t mean anyone can use a thing that’s in public to make money off of. Public does not mean public domain. Public means anyone could possibly see it. Public domain means the public owns it.
Who’s making money off it?
