(31,464 posts)How do you define "a reasonable effort to be left alone?" Again, you and I will probably never have to worry about this. But you know what, if someone hires a PI to follow you, do you have "a reasonable effort to be left alone?" And, sadly, the DO have to live their lives constantly having to look over their shoulders, because they're crazy famous! People WANT to see them. By virtue of their celebrity, they have become a commodity, and people are willing to pay big money for a simple photograph. Again, won't happen to you or me, but we're not Brad Pitt, or Prince Harry, or Kate. There is a reason lots of famous books have been written on this subject. Celebrity sounds cool when you're not one...but you sell yourself for the privilege. We get into several layers, here. Is it "right?" No. Do sharks eat helpless seals? Yup.
