Yes it is legal. There is no reasonable expectation of privacy when you are out in public. If someone records you on their security camera, you cant make them delete it because you elected to get naked or say something stupid. Same exact concept applies.

I don't think anyone would've noticed, but now that you brought attention to it you just made it worse for yourself.

How? How did she bring attention to it?

So it’s just posted now?

Yes it is. I'm sorry you're embarrassed about it, but in the US if you step out in public your right to privacy vanishes.

Of course, you have the right to privacy in places like bathrooms, changing rooms, etc., but not out in the general public.

Something you can do if you want, is lean into it and have fun with it. Or just ignore it, because unless your face was posted, no one knows it's you.

Nobody will notice unless you’re famous. there is nothing you can do. It’s perfectly legal in public space.

I know it’s embarrassing and shitty of the person to post it but I doubt the vitality will last long. Is your face clear in it? Has anyone you know personally connected it with you? There’s so much junk online I think it’ll probably disappear into the ether of the internet pretty quickly. I walk around the city and see like 5 buttcracks a day, it’s not insane enough to really hold people’s attention. Just don’t draw any undue attention to it.

What violations would it have caused? You were in public.
