After all, the law considers strip clubs to be 'public' places. I spoke with my attorney about available recourse, and his opinion was that uploads by scumbag strip club customers that did not attempt to profit from the clandestine pictures would fall under the 'fair use' doctrine thus making civil lawsuits unwinnable. In the most extreme case, a strip club stage video of me wound up being broadcast by a foreign TV network without my knowledge or consent. Upload sites, tube sites, social media sites, etc. Pseudonyms or stage names are OK if you don't want your real name published. The deadline is short, and I want to finish the piece this week if possible, so please get in touch now if you have a relevant story to share. Please respond here or with a DM if you are interested in being interviewed. Most of the dancers I've spoken with have found their pics on Instagram or Facebook, often by searching for the club in the location search. I've heard from dancers in Portland about this phenomenon, and am looking for dancers in other places to talk to as well.

The story I'm writing compares strip club creepshots with new, emerging revenge porn laws that make it illegal in many states to take nude or sexualized images and share them without the subject's consent. Have you ever found a picture of yourself online-a picture that was taken while you were dancing (or even naked) and that you didn't give permission for? Have you grabbed a cell phone out of someone's hand because they were being sneaky and trying to take your pics? Have you even had to threaten to sue or pay a lawyer to get your nude/nonconsenual photos taken down?

Hi ladies! I'm a journalist (and former dancer) working on a story about club creepshots.
