Even though Svenson won his trial under the first amendment, I do not believe that what he did was right. I believe that everyone has the right to their privacy in their own homes. If someone is walking in the street or anywhere public, that is a different story. Furthermore, Svenson putting these pictures in a gallery and exhibited them without permission, should be illegal.
However, I did like how Yokomizo left a letter for his neighbors in their mailboxes by saying, I am making a gallery of people I don't know, but if you do not want to participate, put your curtains down so I know you do not want to participate. If Svenson did that before submitting his gallery, I feel that the whole trial and the problems would have been avoided since permission was given.
