Suing for Secret Sexual Recording? Yes, And the Consequences Are Brutal

"If someone secretly records you during sex, you can sue them. The typical defense is that well, they knew I was recording them or this is something that we always do, but that's not a defense because there are revenge porn statutes, criminal statutes, and there are civil liabilities for doing this to someone destroying their emotional calm.

This is very common. There will be someone that makes a recording and they want to keep it for themselves or they want to have some proof that they had sex with somebody and usually at some later time when that relationship, whatever that looks like, ends, they then disseminate that either publicly or amongst their friends.

That's a revenge porn issue as well, but from a civil perspective, that would be something that you could sue for emotional distress amongst other damages there and you could get a restraining order for something like that and enjoin the person from disseminating that footage."
