What crime? I can't think of one that would apply.

This might be where our opinions diverge. To what rights do you refer? I think your right to privacy may be waived when you consent to have the pictures taken and sent to a third party without a written contract.

Your right to privacy is not waived just by disclosure. If I tell my girlfriend I have VD, and she e-mails my whole office that fact after we break up, that is an invasion of privacy and is not waived because I told her in private. If I announce I have VD at the office party and then she sends the e-mail, that's different.

This is common sense stuff.

I totally agree that that is a moral invasion of privacy. I'm just not convinced it's a legal one.

It is a legal one. See my other post: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5092699
