Good manners, not laws, key to web privacy

British Home Office minister Damian Green has said
it was not up to government to stop people invading the privacy of others
by posting information, photos or films of them online.
He wanted the state to intrude less into people's lives.

My view
It is difficult for an individual person to take action against another person who invades privacy. The Government should have people who can attend to these complaints. They can write to the alleged offender and ask them to remove the offending material. If the offender refuses, the matter can be taken by the next step. We cannot expect the citizens to engage a lawyer (which is costly). This is why the Government is elected to run the country.
